French president Emmanuel Macron on Saturday discussed the results of joint airstrikes against Syria in phone conversations with US President Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Theresa May, according to the French presidency. The conversations took place hours after the three allies launched a military attack, which they claimed targeted Bashar Assad’s chemical weapons arsenal, Reuters said. “It is now for the United Nations Security Council, in unity, to take initiative on the political, chemical and humanitarian questions in Syria,” the French presidency said in a statement.
