PARIS, Jan 28 (Reuters) - French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said on Friday the situation over Ukraine was very tense but a dialogue with the Russia was still possible.
"It is up to Vladimir Putin to say if he wants consultation or confrontation," Le Drian told RTL radio.
French President Emmanuel Macron said on Tuesday he would seek clarification over Russia's intentions towards Ukraine in a phone call with President Vladimir Putin on Friday, amid rising fears of an attack by the Kremlin on its former Soviet republic.
