Only partially correct. Some of the legionnaires were on leave, many were not, but none had permission to leave France. Many matters ( no travel outside France without permission, no cars, no renting apartments ) are tightly regulated for the initial contract ( five years ?) There are approx 700 Ukranians out of 9 000 legionnaires, so a significant proportion.

"According to France 24 Macron is putting the french economy first and talking to Putin."

I'm unsure what is being referred to, but that would be particularly sensitive at the moment with France currently holding the presidency of the European Council, as well as this being the last four weeks of the French presidential election campaign and Macron seeking re-election..
