US EditionFrance moves to bar US Ambassador Charles Kushner from direct government access
- On Feb 23, Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot requested that Charles Kushner no longer have direct access to members of the French government after Kushner failed to attend a summons at the Quai d'Orsay.
- The U.S. Embassy in France reposted a State Department statement about Quentin Deranque's killing, prompting Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot to summon Kushner, which the foreign ministry said risked being exploited.
- Kushner skipped the Quai d'Orsay meeting and sent the US charge d'affaires instead, citing personal commitments; this was his second absence after the August 2025 summons.
- The ministry said Kushner may still carry out diplomatic duties and exchanges, leaving the door open for reconciliation, while President Emmanuel Macron meets Tuesday on violent action groups.
- Amid tensions ahead of next year's presidential vote, six men charged over Quentin Deranque's killing and a 3,200 rally in Lyon highlight deep political divisions.
