French President Emmanuel Macron has warned against verbal 'escalation' with Moscow, after US President Joe Biden called Russian leader Vladimir Putin a 'butcher' over his invasion of Ukraine.
PARIS - French President Emmanuel Macron on Sunday warned against verbal "escalation" with Moscow, after US President Joe Biden called Russian leader Vladimir Putin a "butcher" over his invasion of Ukraine.
The stance has been criticised by some other leaders and commentators but defended by Macron as vital to limiting damage from the war. Biden's Saturday remarks were far more muscular, with the US chief executive using a visit to Poland to dub Putin "a butcher" who "cannot remain in power".
