Russia: Expands borders four times since 1998.
France: Openly talks about stopping that trend.
Russia: Feels threatened.

Well...invading Ukraine is a hugely provocative act...

France is countering Russia's support of independent movements in West Africa. Great Power politics are back.

The real reason France is stepping up is that the Russian Wagner forces organized coups in every former French colony in Africa from 2020 up till now. Russia already is at war with France indirectly. France cannot rely on cheap material resources, like uranium for their nuclear energy supply, from those former colonies any more, so the French economy is at stake. The Wagner forces also want cheap resources, but pay more than the French.

I have mad respect for France, the world should not fall prey to nuclear black mail. I wish more of NATO including us in the USA would take a stronger stance like France.

We all remember what happened last time we tried to go with appeasement with a major nationalistic European military strong man, right? I'm seriously asking. We do remember that whole thing don't we?

The point is Nato should have never said out loud that we would never send boots in Ukraine. Macron simply said it should not be off the table. Never say never out loud.

Let's remember folks, France has their own nuclear capability, independent of the US and the UK. For Macron is not intimidated.
In my opinion, unfortunately, the only way Ukraine has a victory is a Ukrainian ally sending in military boots on the ground.

As a Dutchman i have a lot of respect of Ukrains fighting spirit and skills, Polands modern army, and the French president for his steel balls.

One thing that keeps getting overlooked in all these videos is that the West guaranteed security to Ukraine in exchange for not keeping the Soviet era nukes they had possession of when the USSR broke apart. Boots on ground could be viewed as sticking to that agreement.

Europe seems to have failed to learn the lessons of WW2 if they don’t stop an aggressive nation early then it might take a lot more effort later.

Go on France, least they have some balls

Ukraine are fighting for our freedom not only theirs 🇺🇦

The French Foreign Legion has some plausible deniability IMO. Everybody forgets about the French Foreign Legion and their independent actions for the last 80 years. They are extremely capable and hard core force. Might be worth an episode? ❤

Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦 and France 🇫🇷 ❤❤❤❤

NATO needs to stand up firmly to Russia. Poland, Baltics along with France & Germany realize they can't count on the US for assistance. Europe needs to get up to speed fast and deter further aggression by helping Ukraine directly. Whether with NATO or not.

[supadupahilton]

When you place the leader of France at the end of a long table so as to mock him, it's not likely to go well.

[matthewharper]

Poland owns Russia a debt they are very willing to repay

[louismorris]

Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦 from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤❤❤❤
