This election is very important for the European continent. You know that Russia and France have a long-standing relationship, a historic relationship, rich with its own traditions. We are for the continued development of this relationship. As for the election, we respect the choice of the French people. Russia has never interfered with, nor will it ever interfere in the electoral processes of other countries.
