"Macron and Zelenskyy visits to Germany spark police investigations"

French President Emmanuel Macron is set to visit Germany from July 2 to 4, with a state banquet hosted by German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier on July 3. Macron is also scheduled to meet German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to discuss European and international politics. The visit comes amid disagreements between the two countries over key policy areas such as finances, energy, and how to handle China. However, France and Germany are keen to intensify their cooperation on dealing with Russia's war in Ukraine as well as issues like hydrogen, semiconductors, and defense.
