Thank you for a good and phone conversation @EmmanuelMacron. We covered topical NATO issues and discussed our support for Ukraine among other things. I shared results of my visit to Kyiv yesterday. Finland and France are close allies and cooperate in many sectors. Personally, I believe that this is the beginning of an excellent working relationship.
