French President Emmanuel Macron did not exclude the possibility of depriving his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin of the "Grand Cross" title of the "Legion of Honor" order.

APA reports that "Le Figaro" publication wrote about it.

It was noted that Macron said this while answering journalists' questions after the European Union (EU) summit held in Brussels.

He also emphasized that depriving Vladimir Putin of the honorary title awarded by former President Jacques Chirac in 2006 is a symbolic but important matter.
