Zelensky wants to see Poutine, death of Yvan Colonna and the Michelin Guide arrives

Did you miss the news this early morning? We’ve put together a recap to help you see things more clearly.

Talking to each other directly rather than making guns speak: this is essentially the message that Volodymyr Zelensky once again sent to Vladimir Putin. The Ukrainian president insisted Monday evening on the need for a “meeting”, “in any form whatsoever”, with his Russian counterpart to “stop the war” in Ukraine. “I believe that without this meeting it is impossible to fully understand what they (the Russians) are ready for to stop the war,” he said in an interview with suspended, a Ukrainian regional public media. Zelensky, however, made it clear to the master of the Kremlin that any “compromise” in the negotiations with Russia would be subject to a referendum in Ukraine.

Yvan Colonna, the Corsican independence activist sentenced to life for the assassination of the prefect Erignac, died Monday evening as a result of his attack in Arles prison on March 2. Following this announcement, several politicians reacted like LFI deputy Ugo Bernalicis who described this death as a “tragedy”. Valérie Pécresse for her part judged that this death is “a tragedy”. While considering that Emmanuel Macron had “played time” in the file of Corsican prisoners, the presidential candidate called “not to set Corsica ablaze”. According to her, the status of the island can only be negotiated when “order returns”.
