Russian officials have criticized French President Macron on Monday (May 15) to make remarks about "Russia is becoming a vassal of China", and say that Western countries must adapt to a world of close Russia -China relations.
According to Reuters, Macron had previously interviewed the French Daily Public Opinion that Russia's invasion of Ukraine caused the Kremlin to be isolated.
Macron said: "(Russia) has actually begun a mediocrity to China." He also said that this situation was unimaginable two years ago.
The Kremlin spokesman Peskov responded that Russia -China is a strategic partnership, which has nothing to do with it.
Alexander Grushko, Vice Foreign Minister of Russia, believes that France pays too much attention to changes in world order after the strengthening of Russia -China relations and Russian -China relations.
Gruhko wrote in a statement issued by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs's website: "The West is generally worried that a real multilateral international relations system is formed in front of us, including several independent centers, especially Russia and China."
Gruhko also said: "In this changing world pattern, it is inevitable that Macron and other Western leaders have to accept the solid, equal and mutual respect between Moscow and Beijing.Reality. "
