The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs has released a statement denouncing what it termed as unacceptable interference from the United States regarding the inclusion or exclusion of French companies in international initiatives or economic frameworks.

The Ministry underscored that decisions pertaining to the involvement of French firms in global markets, partnerships, or governance structures are internal and sovereign issues.

This statement comes amid escalating tensions surrounding trade and multinational cooperation frameworks, where the roles of certain companies have reportedly become contentious.

French diplomatic representatives reaffirmed that France maintains the right to establish the conditions under which its domestic companies engage without external political influence.

The Ministry asserted that any efforts to exert pressure or sway these policies are regarded as violations of mutual respect in international relations.

No additional details were given concerning the specific companies or forums involved in the conflict.

French authorities have expressed that communication with American officials will persist through the appropriate diplomatic channels.
