It turns out that the French president invited Durov to dine together. Pavel told about this during interrogation by the police, the French newspaper Le Canard Chainé claims.
But instead of lunch, Durov was met in France by local police. Macron did not officially confirm this. But local politician Florian Philippot said that this was quite in the spirit of the French president.
