French chansonnier Francis Lalanne recorded a video message to Putin

"Hey. This is Paris and this is French artist Francis Lalanne.

Mr. President Putin, I ask you not to confuse France with those who rule it today.

I wish you good luck and, of course, all the fighters who are fighting for peace”, - Lalanne said in Russian.

It's worth reminding: Francis Lalanne is a supporter of the “yellow vests” movement and openly opposes the policies of French President Emmanuel Macron.

Earlier, Macron said he was going to continue the dialogue with the Russian leader about the situation in Ukraine.

He warned against drawing red lines across Ukraine to Russia as it could draw France into the conflict.
