The Kremlin announced on Monday that it detects no strong political will in France aimed at restoring ties with Moscow and is closely monitoring the formation of France's new government after recent elections.

Contrary to predictions, a leftist alliance emerged as the unexpected frontrunner, resulting in a hung parliament.
