Russian President Vladimir Putin is still invited to D-day commemorations in France on June 6 despite the Ukraine crisis, Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said today.

"President Putin has been invited ... And for the moment he remains invited," Fabius said on Europe 1 radio.

Fabius said however he had cancelled a planned trip to Moscow Tuesday with Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian to meet their Russian counterparts. His ministry earlier said the trip would depend on the "evolving situation" in Ukraine.
