Emmanuel Macron expressed France’s solidarity with its allies during a
telephone conversation with U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday and
said Iran must avoid “destabilizing” actions after a top Iranian
military commander was killed in a U.S. air strike in Baghdad.
“Given
the recent rise in tensions in Iraq and the region, the President of
the Republic highlighted his total solidarity with our allies in light
of the attacks carried out in recent weeks against the coalition in
Iraq,” Macron’s office said in a statement.
“He also expressed
his concerns regarding the destabilizing activities of the Quds force
under General Qassem Soleimani and highlighted the need for Iran... to
avoid taking any measures that could lead to an escalation in the
situation and destabilizing the region.”
