Macron said he weighed every word before proposing to send NATO troops to Ukraine

During the opening ceremony of the Olympic Village in the suburbs of Paris, the French President confirmed to a journalist the possibility of sending Western military personnel to Ukraine. Emmanuel Macron assured that he weighed and thought through every word before voicing this proposal.

The head of the Fifth Republic emphasized that the issues of assistance to Kyiv are very serious, and therefore he is confident that he is right, despite criticism from most of his allies.



Following his comments about potentially sending ground troops to the country that led to his main allies refusing to accept them and Vladimir Putin's sharp reaction, Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday that "every word I utter on this matter is weighed. thought out and weighed again

– writes the newspaper Le Monde after a conversation with the president.

Let us note that French Defense Minister Sebastian Lecornu hastened to explain Macron’s unexpected proposal. The head of the department said that we are not talking about regular military personnel, but about support personnel.

The Le Figaro newspaper, citing data from a poll, reports that the majority of the French do not approve of the president’s position on sending ground troops to Ukraine. 68% of respondents were against such support. The publication notes that 51% of the country's residents believe that Paris should adhere to neutrality in relations with Russia, and 11% of respondents even consider the Russian Federation an ally.

However, Macron’s idea found several like-minded people among NATO members. A high-ranking army officer announced the possibility of sending military personnel to Ukraine Netherlands. As expected, the proposal was approved by the Baltic countries - Estonia and Lithuania.

    Macron’s lithium belt is leaving his hands, which Zelensky wrote off... Of course, he thought of everything. Yes, Russia won’t give it.

    Macron assured that he weighed and thought through every word

    Manic persistence in creating the conditions for the outbreak of a nuclear war does not paint Macron’s mental abilities. Does the nation need a leader who will lead the country, the EU and the world to a nuclear solution?

      Why not? Now all countries practically agree that the world needs a reboot. The majority are not satisfied with the current state of affairs.

        It would be nice to carry out this “reset” without mutual destruction. And simply by removing the states to their states. Along with their "rules-based world." Many problems would disappear on their own...

          Well, they talk about Russia the same way. “It would be nice if Russia moved to Russia.” This is the dead end of the situation - everyone wants more than what the “partner” wants.

            In Africa, Russia does not interfere with them, in Syria it does not interfere, in Venezuela it does not interfere. Only your own sanctions.
            But they have almost devoured Europe, depriving them of Russian gas. Directly through the pipe that went, Russia has LNG for replacement. The Europeans themselves don’t want it, that’s their policy! So where is Russia interfering with the Americans? They just wanted to put him in a stall, in a “world based on rules.” So that's all
            from the outskirts? Won't they burst?

              It interferes in Africa, and in Syria (the Americans even attacked the Russians - a well-known fact), and in Venezuela. I’m not justifying anyone - the way the world works is that countries look for benefits far beyond their borders. This applies to both the States and Russia.

          Russia had problems with the West, especially with crests, even before the states appeared on the map.

    Of course, Makrosha weighed everything and thought that the European allies would refuse and no one would send anything, but he would remain such a fearless hero, like he has the coolest belly button. Austin, the head of the Pentagon, is also scary, because it’s scary and it’s in the Americans’ blood to scare everyone, because. everyone is afraid of the USA, except Russia, they intimidated India into refusing to purchase oil from the Russian Federation, now they are looking for new oil suppliers...
