Macron calls Polish PM 'a far-right anti-Semite' in row over Putin talks
French President Emmanuel Macron has called Polish PM Mateusz Morawiecki "a far-right anti-Semite who bans LGBT people", after being criticised for his talks with Russia's Vladimir Putin.
Mr Morawiecki compared Mr Macron's efforts to negotiating with Hitler.
...
It is not clear why Mr Macron accused Mr Morawiecki of anti-Semitism, although the Polish government has faced international criticism for laws making it harder for Jewish people to recover property lost during and after World War Two, as well as one making it an offence to link the Polish nation to Nazi crimes.
Mr Macron also said Mr Morawiecki wanted to help his rival Marine Le Pen in the French presidential election on Sunday.

It's extraordinary for 2 EU leaders to get so personal. Not good at a time when European unity is needed.
