Sounding much more like U.S. President Donald Trump than German Chancellor Angela Merkel in terms of holding the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) even slightly to account for the recent murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi or the ongoing carnage in Yemen, French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday refused to answer questions about his country’s pending arms deals with the Saudis and told reporters to get used to it.

“This has nothing to do with what we’re talking about. Nothing. So I won’t answer that question. I’m sorry but as long as I’ll be in office this is how it will be, whether people like it or not,” he told reporters in Paris while—notably—attending a naval weapons show.

Described as “visibly irritated” by Reuters, Macron was asked a followup question about the Khashoggi affair by another journalist, but only said: “It’s not because one leader says something that I must react to it every time. So I won’t answer that.”

Russian journalist Angel Petrov, summed up the situation this way in a tweet: “#Macron evades a question on Saudi arms sales. #Spain’s congress refuses to block weapons deals with Riyadh. #Germany’s acting otherwise for obvious reason. Short of judging anyone (one should, though), Europe’s inability to act with one voice is once again on display. #Khashoggi.”
