�IRNA - French President Emmanuel Macron said Paris considers a dialogue with Russia, Turkey, and Iran on Syria a necessary part of any settlement to Syria crisis.


According to Sutniknews, Macron claimed on Sunday that the missile attack against Syria was 'legitimate' and conducted within the international community framework.

Meanwhile, Macron also remarked that Paris considers a dialogue with Russia, Turkey, and Iran on Syria being a necessary part of any settlement.

'I have said from the very beginning that in order to reach a sustainable solution on Syria it is necessary to talk to Iran, Russia and Turkey. It is necessary to be engaged in dialogue with Iran, because of its presence in Syria.'
