More than one in two French citizens between the ages of 18 and 25 are ready to fight in Ukraine to defend their country, Ipsos poll shows. Of those surveyed, 51% are ready to go to war in Ukraine to defend France, with 17% saying “definitely yes” and 34% saying “maybe yes”.

1. Viva la France!

2. Why I appreciate Frances jest. I feel a lot of Western armies will be in the shock with the warfare in Ukraine. It’s all fun and games tell a iskander missile drops at your main base because you didn’t think Russia wouldn’t target a formation of foreign troops on Ukraine soil.

   Not saying they wouldn’t learn and adapt quickly. But this wouldn’t be another random Africa incursion were your dealing with some insurgents with a few mortars.

3. Bravo France

   It’s a stand here and now, or a slow drift into WW3 if Ukraine is enslaved.

4. Looks like a fish, smells like a fish…….

   No numbers of people in the poll or where from ?

   Looks like someone is trying to cause a row in France and tell the kids their going to the battlefield……….

5. Fuck yes, it’s nice to see a Western European country that doesn’t act like a pussy lol

6. That’s commendable, but until they draft Ukrainian men 18-30, just take a seat.

7. They can make up for their last pathetic surrender then

8. France isn’t the sort of country to back down… Oh wait /s

9. Marshal Ney would be proud

10. Liberté!!
