   PARIS - French President Emmanuel Macron on Saturday said he would soon
   travel to Russia for more talks with his counterpart Vladimir Putin.

   "Trust-building talks initiated with President Putin at Fort Bregancon
   continue," Macron said in a tweet, mentioning European security,
   regional conflicts and climate change as key themes. "I will travel
   soon to Russia."

   Macron and Putin held a video call on Friday. Macron has called for
   Europe to re-examine its strategic partnership with Russia, saying that
   a policy of defiance towards Moscow in recent years had failed.
