France wants 'clear message' from China to Russia over Ukraine war

France's top diplomat Stephane Sejourne says that Paris wants China to send "clear messages" to its strategic ally Russia over its war in Ukraine, after meetings with his counterpart in Beijing.

Sejourne also says that France is not seeking an economic decoupling from China, while calling for an "economic rebalancing" to ensure trade is "healthy and sustainable".
