Moscow (Reuters)-Russia said on Friday that French President Emmanuel Macron spoke in an improper way to a head of state when he called Russian President Vladimir Putin, “an ogre to our doors.”
Macron, who made the comment in an interview last week, has been the target of frequent Russian criticism because of his support for Ukraine.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told Moscow reporters that Macron was constantly making strange statements that sometimes crossed the line of decency and became “low level insults.”

“This is not worthy of a head of state,” said Zakharova.
