You can pretty much forget it. France did not share SaM-146 civilian hot engine section manufacturing technology with Russia for a much larger engine order. Russia build 235 Superjet with that engine. Two of them per aircraft. Almost 500 engines ignoring spares.
Was it even considered?
Iirc it was always hot/cold split without any localization demands.
International split itself was the goal.
