This tweet came after Paris urged the Middle Eastern and Eastern European countries to stop French products boycott calls.
Those calls have been aroused after Macron's statements over the publication of satirical cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad.
In the same context, the French foreign affairs ministry said in a statement, “These calls for boycott are baseless and should stop immediately, as well as all attacks against our country, which are being pushed by a radical minority,” according to Reuters.
Macron’s comments, on Wednesday, came in response to the beheading of a teacher, Samuel Paty, outside his school in a suburb outside Paris earlier this month, after he had shown cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed during a class he was leading on free speech.
