PARIS

French President Emmanuel Macron seeks to improve relations with Türkiye, as evidenced by his message to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan following his reelection victory on May 28, a Foreign Ministry spokesperson said on Thursday.

Macron is convinced that France and Türkiye should cooperate on a wide range of issues, including ensuring peace in Europe, tackling challenges in the Mediterranean, and determining the future of the Trans-Atlantic alliance, Anne-Claire Legendre responded to a question from an Anadolu correspondent at her regular press briefing in Paris.

The two leaders also agreed to meet soon during their phone call, she added.
