Macron: Europe must be able to defend its interests on its own

1. After the SC scream of “Fuck You America’ yesterday in the USA, Europe needs to get it’s shit together quickly because there is ZERO justice coming for Rotten Donnie Trump! His chances of retaking the WH improved 100 fold with the SC’s stopping the Jack Smith case and essentially saying Trump will always be immune! America cannot be counted on in the future FACT!

2. It will be really interesting to see what France does after the Olympics.

3. And meanwhile the rest of Europe has to realise that it must be able to defend its interests without relying on France who sees itself as a natural leader in the absense of these pesky americans. But Cher Monsiers Macon, I cannot risk relying on a country not sending more aid to Ukraine than yours. And thats in spite of all the big talk that I find very sympathetic but which I need to see materialize. Until then I think we better not bet everything on a European defence either.

4. Then stop talking and show the way by placing 10 digits orders in the armament industry tomorrow! The industry can’t be expected to increase production capacity on their own. This all starts with political will. We need to get serious!

5. France has said that it is thinking about sending troops to Ukraine to secure the northern border with Belarus and free up the UAF to fight in the east.

   If that is not just talk then they have the perfect opportunity to do it at this moment. For whatever reason Lukashenko has said that Ukraine is massing troops along the border and is planning to attack Belarus so in turn Belarus is preparing for war.

   Of course this is all BS propaganda but France could use this as an excuse to enter Ukraine and take over all border crossings in the north of the country and assume the roll of “peacekeeping force” to save Belarus from invasion.

   So UAF doesn’t need to guard the border anymore and Belarus is safe from invasion.

6. Macron has a long term desire for a EU army controlled by France via Brussels.

7. I really don’t get why the Right in America doesn’t like Macron (besides the obvious Russian disinfo), he’s practically more right wing than Trump.

8. That guy is full of hot air. France has not kept its NATO commitments. Whether or not they step up is another matter.

9. I am all for our European Allies to invest more in their defense spending. It was a nice little break from the end of the Cold War to now that the Western powers / alliances could rest on our laurels… Russia, China, and Iran have brought the Cold War back and are major players for influence and resources in both Asia and Africa to fund their military machines and geopolitical ambitions. Western Europe needs to grow their peacetime armament industry and make plans to enlarge and enhance their military Capabilities. There are 5 military powers that can project their military might away from their borders. The US, UK, France ( the good guys) Russia and China (our potential adversaries). We need to be able to put a boot up their ass asap when the shit hits the fan.

10. Macron trying to be Reagan. It would help the European economy if they put Macron’s talk into action. They should invest heavily in drone and anti-drone warfare. And build lots of missiles.

11. For all the Macron talk the power is in Germany, when Germany moves to a European military it will happen. Germany has already suggested a Joint military including UK… its going to happen, they should just take all the Nato countries and make a group chat without USA and call it ETO+UK
