Russian President Vladimir Putin has called on his French counterpart Francois Hollande to take steps to improve relations between the two countries, Russia's TASS news agency reports. The Russian leader said on Friday relations between Russia and France "are not at their best, with trade going down, which is regrettable." "We must take steps to improve our relations," he underscored. Putin said he planned to discuss with his French counterpart prospects for the development of Russia’s relations with France and with the European Union in general. The two presidents met in Yerevan on April 24 where they participated in events marking the centennial of the Armenian Genocide.
