Andy.. Macron's not playing election politics with "Marine Le Pen opposing him in the next election". He's already had 2 presidential mandates, which is the max by law in France. He can't run again. (CrayonsEmoji)😊 Where’s Jack when you need him?

France posturing to be the leader of NATO. The UK has done more than France ever will in this game. The only use french troops would have is to man long range air defense, which isn't being discussed and would absolutely result in French casualties.

the UK military has become weak and its nuclear deterrence is failing. UK's ballistic Trident ( made in USA ) have failed miserably twice when tested recently. Do you honestly think that France would not also send fully armed Rafale fighters squadrons + logistics to cover our troops ? think twice

What Finland sends and what is the specifics regarding Ukraine, is largely kept from public. There is atleast APCs and possibly ammunition, artillery stuff, and training related stuff. But as I said, the specifics are intentionally kept from public. Essentially in the dark from Russians lets be honest. So that is hard to speculate on from Europes perspective. People who knows, knows, for sure but in public discussion Finland and probably countries in similar position arent gonña advertise it to russians we sent all our stuff to Ukraine come and get it😅

Ukraine is not part of nato. But if Russia attacked a nato country then that’s a different story. And we have already done more than any other country. It’s time for others to step up if they want Ukraine to be successful. I bet the live comments were on fire tonight. 😂😂😂🤣

I agree, not worth the risk of sending NATO to fight Russians in Ukraine. It has the potential of leading to a major war and massive losses on all sides, and for what?

Yes, some of them were in Mariupol. Ammunition of the french International legion was found there after capturing one of the districts. Dark story but one of the reasons of Azov surrendering was the secret agreement between Russians and US that Russians will give a free way for high NATO officials hiding inside Azovstal. Among them were french as well.

I don't think that anyone would suggest that France is a puppet of NATO 7. Ok 8. Dee did add 'whatever its called over there...' -- as for the second point, yes France is not the USA, good point 9.

This reeks of ignorance. France, if I remember correctly, has one of the best historical win: lose ratios. They’ve fought many wars. They have a military that depends on being excellent rather than large. They 100% have loads of value to bring to the table militarily speaking.
