France to summon US ambassador over comments on slain far-right activist, foreign minister says | France24 |

The US ambassador to Paris, Charles Kushner, called France's foreign minister Tuesday and pledged not to "interfere" in the host country's affairs, a French diplomatic source said, after a fallout over Washington's remarks following the killing of a far-right activist.

A US embassy spokesperson said in a statement that Kushner and Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot "spoke today in a frank and amicable call, reaffirming their shared commitment to working together, along with all other ministers and French officials, on the many issues that impact the United States and France, particularly as the two countries celebrate 250 years of rich diplomatic relations”.

The new diplomatic row between the two NATO allies broke out after Kushner flouted a summons over the US administration denouncing what it called "terrorism" and left-wing violence in France after the fatal beating of far-right activist Quentin Deranque earlier this month.

France blocked the ambassador – whose son Jared Kushner is married to US President Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka – from having access to French government ministers until he explained himself.
