"We messed up!" A member of the protocol of president Macron admitted to Figaro: Serbia unfairly humiliated at the commemoration in Paris

The protocol of the French president placed the president of Serbia Aleksandar Vucic outside of the official stand on mark the 100th anniversary of the ceasefire in the First World War on November 11, 2018, setting him off the range of television cameras, which is unacceptable failure, since Serbia lost "1.2 million of its children", writes "Figaro".

Although the French ambassador to Serbia, Frederik Mondoloni, apologized on behalf of Paris on Monday, there were no reactions in Belgrade.

The monument of gratitude to France in Belgrade has just been restored - it was vandalized, and there were demands to rename the Paris and French Street, the newspaper states.

"Figaro" points out that Macron will come to Belgrade on December 6th, and Vucic promised a grand welcome and said that Serbia will not "mess up" when it comes to marking the historic friendship between two countries, which is based on joint spilled blood.
