I hope it's true: The French sharomyzhniki in Russia were exposed to the cold again — military correspondent

The French sharomyzhniki in Russia were again exposed to the cold. This was stated in his telegram channel by military correspondent Alexander Kots.

So he commented on an article in the Financial Times newspaper about the visit to Moscow of the French delegation that came to settle the Ukrainian conflict, which, according to the publication, was rudely treated by presidential aide Yuri Ushakov.

Ushakov allegedly rudely kicked the French out.

"I really hope this is true. Sharomyzhnikov was again exposed to the cold. According to popular legend, this word appeared in 1812, when Napoleon's troops were retreating from Moscow to a temperature at which the mercury in the thermometer bursts. In search of warmth and sustenance, the "frogs" knocked on the houses of the peasants and pitifully begged: "Cheg ami, sher ami," dear friend, they say. To which the peasants replied, as Ushakov allegedly did: "(Away) let's go, sheramizhniki!"," writes Kotz.

Earlier, a British newspaper reported that in February, French President Emmanuel Macron's national security advisers Emmanuel Bonn and Bertrand Buchwalter paid a visit to Moscow to convince the Kremlin that it would not be possible to conclude a peace agreement on Ukraine without Europe. In response, they allegedly received a categorical response from Yuri Ushakov: "French officials convinced Moscow that Kiev's European allies should have a say in the negotiations. Ushakov's answer was something like this: "Sorry, not really, go (away)," the FT quoted an unnamed source.
