PARIS, June 22 (Reuters) - France will hold an emergency defence cabinet meeting later on Sunday to discuss the latest developments in the Middle East after the United States launched air strikes on Iran, the French presidency said on Sunday.
Macron, who spoke to several leaders, including the Saudi Crown Prince on the issue, will hold further talks with European and regional leaders during the day, the French presidency said.
It added that everything would now be done to speed up the departure of French citizens who wished to leave Iran and Israel.
