2018 World Cup Final: France VS Croatia: Macron, Grabar-Kitarović, Putin...
The 2018 FIFA World Cup Final was the final match of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. It was the 21st final of the FIFA World Cup, a quadrennial association football tournament contested by the men's national teams of the member associations of FIFA. The match was contested by France and Croatia and held at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, Russia, on 15 July 2018.
Before 2018, France's only World Cup victory was in 1998 – though they had also reached the final in 2006 – while Croatia were playing in their very first World Cup final. Both teams had defeated former World Cup champions on their way to the final: France defeated the the 1930 and 1950 winners Uruguay, Croatia defeated the 1966 winners England and both teams defeated two-time champions Argentina. Croatia became the third Eastern European nation to reach the World Cup final, and the first since Czechoslovakia (today the Czech Republic) lost the final in 1962 to Brazil.
France won the match 4–2, having taken a 2–1 lead during the first half on an own goal and penalty awarded by the video assistant referee in the system's first use at a World Cup final. It was the first time that an own goal had been scored in a World Cup final. France also became the second team after Brazil in 2002 to win all their knockout matches without any extra time or penalty shoot-out. As winners of the World Cup, France earned the right to compete for the 2021 FIFA Confederations Cup.

Putin And Ondimba In Kremlin

President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin: Mr President, colleagues,
It is a great pleasure to welcome you in the Kremlin. Thank you for finding an opportunity to visit.
I would like to highlight, in the beginning of our meeting, that this year, in October, we mark the 45th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between our countries and I draw attention to the fact that relations between our states are developing in all directions. Unfortunately, the total volume of trade is not large yet, but the growth rates are impressive.
There is naturally a lot of work to do for us, including the regional settlement in Central Africa. We know that Gabon takes the most active part in this, making a significant contribution to this joint work.
Mr President, we are very happy to see you.
President of Gabon Ali Bongo Ondimba: Mr President,
First and foremost, let me thank you for the opportunity you provided to me – to see and meet you. I am also grateful to you for the hospitality we have felt since we have been here.
Additionally, I would like to thank you, as your country was one of the first to send greetings after the elections. I would also like to use the opportunity and congratulate you on the same, on your election.
Mr President, I came here to tell you something you already know: Africa needs you. Your country is a huge country, which has enormous capabilities and which can, of course, contribute a lot to the continent.
I am also glad that Russia is not indifferent to the settlement of a conflict that is in direct proximity to us: I am referring to the settlement in the Central African Republic. We have our own contingent in the Central African Republic. Gabon is now chairing the Economic Community of Central African States and this community is directly involved in settling the conflict in the Central African Republic. I think it would be good if we united or efforts to finally establish peace in this country.
Mr President, everyone talks about Africa today, from most various angles. This continent is rich in resources, and we observe how many major states fight each other to gain access to these resources.
