Zakharova reacted with irony to Barro's words about France's fairness

Russian Foreign Ministry (MFA) spokeswoman Maria Zakharova reacted with irony to the words of French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot, who said that their country's compass does not have a "south" or "north" mark on it, but it does have a "justice" mark.

"Batenka, so you don't have a compass, but a banner," the diplomat wrote in her Telegram channel on February 20.
