Araghchi to Macron: Listen to the future of France
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has told French President Emmanuel Macron to 'listen to the future of France.' Araghchi was responding to Macron’s recent comments about unrest in France. Macron attributed the unrest to high fuel prices resulting from the U.S. war against Iran. The Iranian minister’s response challenged the framing of the French president’s remarks. The exchange turns a dispute over fuel-price pressures into a direct diplomatic rebuke. It places the economic effects of the conflict at the center of tensions between Tehran and Paris. His warning appears aimed at pressing France to reconsider its support for Washington’s campaign against Iran.
