Paris can send up to 20 thousand military personnel with aviation and artillery to Ukraine

87

The introduction of troops of the French Foreign Legion into Ukraine could interfere with a possible operation of units of Russia and Belarus to advance through the western Ukrainian regions into Transnistria.

Also alarming are the words of French Army Colonel Vincent Arbaretier on the LCI TV channel that the number of military personnel being transferred to Ukraine could reach 20 thousand people. It is expected that the group will deploy in the Odessa region, on the right bank of the Dnieper and along the border of Ukraine with Belarus.



Apparently, the deployed French formations will be reinforced by an anti-aircraft missile brigade based on 15-20 SAMP-T and VL-MICA air defense systems and three to four squadrons of Dassault Rafale multirole fighters, because such a group of troops cannot be present without air cover.

The day before, the head of the Investigative Committee, Sergei Naryshkin, said that the Russian Armed Forces during the special operation would have every right to strike at French troops stationed in Ukraine. According to the governor of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, Russian units will consider the Foreign Legion as a priority target for attacks.

The transfer by France (and in the possible future by other Western countries) of regular military groups to help the Armed Forces of Ukraine will significantly aggravate the situation and bring it to a new level of escalation.

    20 thousand possible French "cargo 200" certainly will significantly aggravate the situation and bring it to a new level of escalation.
    It is not even possible that Paris will repeat the fate of Hiroshima.

      It is not even possible that Paris will repeat the fate of Hiroshima.

      This is probably an extreme case, but strikes with tactical nuclear weapons against the French in Ukraine are a priority and may well be the case. Maybe the charred corpses will bring Paris to its senses.

    Mercenaries “work” for money, they have no motivation. Consequently, for our guys, mercenaries from France will be ordinary targets, the same as mercenaries from Poland, Georgia and other extinct countries. The guys will handle it.

        Formally, according to the laws of France tailored for them, they are not considered mercenaries. But in terms of who gets there, how they get there, and what they do there, from the point of view of a warrior’s honor, this is even worse than simple mercenaries. Even when concluding an agreement with the legion, their first name, last name, place and date of birth are changed. And only after 6 months of service the “person” has the right to restore his real name if he survives. What kind of soldiers are these for their country?

        This is not Africa, France, if they start transferring troops to Ukraine, it will be more than 20 tons, because such a quantity does not create a strategic advantage, and can be crushed in a matter of weeks, without sparing Daggers and other large aviation “thermobars”. France has no prospects of getting involved in a war alone, since defeat is more guaranteed. So they will push for joint action, but the United States will not agree, because the PRC, as a more serious problem, is looming. This means that E. Macron’s whole idea is like empty puffing out of one’s cheeks, and nothing more.

    Such statements should be made not by the Head of the Foreign Intelligence Service, but by the President of the country, the Minister of Defense and the Head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. And statements must be official and unambiguous - the appearance of foreign troops on the territory of Ukraine will be regarded as a declaration of war on us by those countries whose troops will be brought into the territory of Ukraine, creating a direct threat to the integrity and very existence of the Russian Federation. And remind the gentlemen in what cases, according to its nuclear doctrine, the Russian Federation can preventively use nuclear weapons. And our sworn “friends” must understand that Russia today no longer cares how they evaluate our position (whether it corresponds or not to some international standards), the main thing is how we evaluate their actions.

    may interfere with a possible operation of Russian and Belarusian units to advance through Western Ukrainian regions into Transnistria.

    It’s hard to come up with a more stupid phrase than this. From Western Ukrainian Lutsk to Transnistrian Rybnitsa, the distance is about 600 km. If you can’t wait to get to Transnistria (or to Cahul?), then the route through Nikolaev-Odessa seems to me optimal: then at least along the way Ukraine will be left without a sea. Why Westernism is needed, only the author of this pearl knows.

          In fact, Russia has been calling for an end to the civil war for a very long time, eight years. And Comrade Zelensky as well. Russia has recognized one of the parties to the collapsed state and is conducting a special operation. An operation against the forces that started the civil war.

          Perhaps France should also formulate its presence in Ukraine. By the way, there are other characters acting there.

            I understand it. Simply - by analogy with Syria (there is also essentially a civil war there and Syria has not declared war on anyone) - what is legal? Does the legal authority have the right to turn to another state for help? Again, to Syria - not everyone recognizes Assad as the legitimate President... Is there no internationally recognized law at all in such cases? Who wants what and how his capabilities allow? "According to the rules"? Which Russia itself criticizes? Double standards? Or how? Purely from the point of view of international law? Or does it simply not exist as such?

            Were you convinced when Russia sent its military personnel to Syria? And they even asked you personally? The same questions arise in relation to Ukraine.
            The only thing you accidentally turned out to be right about is that the country must be ready to provide military assistance to another state. The ideological pumping of the population is no less important than military-industrial potential and military power. This point was not fulfilled either in Syria or in Ukraine. Therefore, the issue of pumping up the population was resolved in Napoleonic fashion, as the play progressed. In the end, we have what we have.

              Colonists arrived in Palestine at the beginning of the twentieth century. There were two major clashes with the Palestinians, who did not want colonists in their homeland. The British had a mandate to rule Palestine.
              After the end of the mandate, the Zionists with the “revived” Hebrew remained there, who announced the creation of Israel in 1948. Then everything is simple, they anger the Palestinians and, defending themselves from them, take away their territory.

              The Zionists had armed forces before the announcement of Israel. The Zionist brigade was trained while fighting the Nazis in Italy for about a year. The British gathered them, armed them and sent them to fight.

              The Palestinians today have nothing but their homeland, which they defend. They protect from Zionism, which was sown by the British, not from the Jews.

No one here has to prove anything to you. And if you are interested, you can read my previous posts. They are not closed to anyone. And, as MY extensive life and army experience (22-odd years) shows, the most militant militants in the army are privateers, cooks and swineherds.
                        By the way, about slops. I don’t pour them on you not out of fear of a ban, but out of principle. I think this should not be allowed under any circumstances in relation to anyone. And they banned me more than once for completely different reasons.
                        Good luck.

                        Your life experience can show me absolutely nothing. And when they say that they don’t believe you, it’s not a question of faith. Unless, of course, you consider yourself a divine person. laughing
                        Tired of it.

                        Naturally. Mine is not about you. I don’t have my own. That's how you live. Based on the Winnie the Pooh principle.

                        Don't be offended, this is not my decision. I like that we now have something to talk about. Yes

          You are wrong again. There is a law. This is the "law of the jungle". And judging by the local controversy, he has quite a lot of supporters

          the NATO base in Odessa is illegal, for example, we destroyed the NATO base in Ochakov within a day and no one even blathered, the Russian base in Syria is legal, because it is a Russian base established at the invitation of Syria,

          They can. Because they are strong.
          There will be no states in Odessa. The US needs Shanghai. And Shanghai is 100 times cooler than Odessa.

    If that is the case, its is an act of war and the Russian subs need to hunt down and destroy the French Navy, wherever they can find them.

    But - against the backdrop of the possible deployment of this contingent (More precisely, already under its cover.) the Poles will begin to behave an order of magnitude more impudently!.. (And then the Romanians will catch up.)

    There are enough FABs for everyone

    Makrosha decided to calm down the Parisian vandals with a lightning-fast walk through the steppes of Ukraine, having agreed on this, of course.

    If any country sends in its troops, as the Russian President said, they will remain there.

    No, from the point of view of the Ministry of Defense everything is fine. They would have had to fight anyway, but now their logistics arm will be so long, the costs of delivering consumables are enormous.

    The stupidest prank. What is the delivery, what are the costs, what are you talking about? They have been supplying ukrov for more than 2 years and have not gone bankrupt. The entry of NATO troops is bad, very bad. We have already fought to the point that we are fighting off Ukrainians on our territory, despite the fact that the Ukrainians receive weapons in homeopathic quantities and not the entire range, compared to what NATO has in its reserves.

      Stupid alarmism. Nata is USA. Without the States, there is no Nata. As for our territory, half of the Zaporozhye, Kherson and Donetsk regions are under crests. And we have been fighting on our territory since ’22. If you've been sleeping all this time, I sympathize with you.

    Until all the dams on the Dnieper are blown up and lowered and the land dries out, there is no point in moving to the right bank!!! Because of this, they left Kherson.

    strangely, the West thinks that Russia will be ready to negotiate, having a choice of either this or the entry of NATO forces. It seems they don’t even suspect that the entry of NATO could be an ideal scenario for overthrowing the current Western political elites. Not only a complete change of elites, but a complete reformatting of the West in an accelerated manner without war.

    Paris can send up to 20 thousand military personnel with aviation and artillery to Ukraine

    but will everyone, as one, turn out to be cooks and drivers? Or, as is customary among the inhabitants of the “garden,” by journalists and volunteers?

    The French will send troops into Ukraine if they know for sure that Russia will not attack them. And to know this, you need a behind-the-scenes agreement or an informant in the Kremlin under Putin who will leak the necessary information.
