French President Emmanuel Macron recently discussed the ongoing Ukraine war in an interview with The Economist. In this conversation, he made a significant statement regarding the possibility of France sending troops to Ukraine. According to Macron, if Russia were to break through Ukrainian front lines and Kyiv requested assistance, it would be legitimate for France to consider deploying troops to support Ukraine⁴⁵. His stance on French soldiers defending Ukraine is notably hawkish, making it one of the strongest positions taken by a Western leader in response to the conflict¹. The situation remains tense, and international leaders continue to closely monitor developments in the region².

It won’t be long now.
This shit will get real…and it will happen soon.
I guess it is as it should be. I think it is unjust to simply wait until the last Ukrainian has been killed before we accept that we are at war with Russia. It’s time to ante in.
Sure they could…. and russia COULD leave ukraine
Let’s go and help ukraine 🇺🇦 build trenches faster than the kremlin psychopath can think, France 🇫🇷 is leading this time hope other countries wakes up fast, Italy 🇮🇹
Please do it. And hopefully the rest of Europe will follow very quickly
