the first four paragraphs:

"台北 — 美国总统拜登周四（4月20日）分别和日前访问中国的法国总统马克龙以及欧盟委员会主席乌尔苏拉·冯德莱恩通话，内容均提及维护台海和平稳定重要性，试图平息先前马克龙 '拒作美国附庸、置身台海危机之外' 的风暴。

"马克龙4月初前往中国进行国事访问，返回时在专机上接受采访表示，欧洲最大的危机就是被卷入台海危机，必须力抗压力避免成为美国的附庸。相关言论一出引起舆论圈激烈反弹，甚至被指责破坏跨大西洋关系，与北京唱和。

"白宫周四 [Apr 20, 2023] 表示，继4月4日 [在专机上] 的谈话之后，拜登总统与马克龙总统今天进行通话。两人讨论了马克龙日前访问中国的行程，以及双方为促进印太地区繁荣、安全、共同价值观以及基于规则的国际秩序所做的持续努力。拜登与马克龙并重申台海和平稳定重要性，以及面对俄罗斯的野蛮入侵，他们坚定支持乌克兰。

这是两人在马克龙提出要与美国保持距离后首次的通话。 * * *

(A) I was most interested what is the word in English for 附庸, which is so pejorative in Chinese.
(B) To be frank, what Macron said is quite ordinary to me, considering France's long history (since World War II) of seeking a role for herself on the world stage.
(C) Jamil Anderlini was previously a Beijing correspondent with Financial Times.
