  1. redditors when putin threatens eastern europe: “if only western europe would step up”
    redditors when someone tries to:

  2. France slowly becoming EU’s Chad protector dad while Germany is becoming everyone’s bitch to keep as much money as possible, hope France can back up their words in the future if shit goes down.

  3. The dude had a 1h30 call with Putin, I don’t think he said anything that could escalate into something big. The headline is most surely some wishwash that can be interpreted however without any type of context included, that’s supposed to keep us proletariate entertained

  4. Yeah thanks for nothing, France already ‘helped’ when we most needed it 8 years ago, now all you do along with Germany is ignore constant ***everyday*** [ceasefire violations from russians](https://www.osce.org/ukraine-smm/reports) and say nothing about it, but when we used Bayraktar drone [ONCE](https://www.reddit.com/r/ukraine/comments/qg9sdw/ukrainian_armed_forces_deploy_bayraktar_drone_for/) (and didn’t even kill anyone because it was a training shell to send the message) on the russian scum who were shelling our villages and were closer than agreed in minsk agreement (boy what a useless fucking toilet paper that was) suddenly France and Germany noticed it and started pressuring Ukraine (wasnt on news here but was everywhere in Ukraine) and [saying ***we*** are escalating the conflict](https://www.diplomatie.gouv.fr/en/country-files/ukraine/news/article/ukraine-q-a-28-oct-2021) (i.e. saying we cant defend ourselves) and then proceed to ignore the shellings from occupied territories literally the next day.

    So after 13000 killed and 1.6 million refugees i can safely say fuck you France and Germany and your fucking nord stream 2. Your words about pressure on russia are meaningless, France are the same russian bootlickers as Germany, who lost 4 people in MH17 and even that didn’t stop them being friends with russia

    **And if that still not making your blood boil** – [this certainly will](https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/qtb06b/ukraine_says_russia_has_nearly_100000_troops_near/hkkbgmh/) – this is just some of photos from vkontakte (russian facebook) from russian troops posing on the wreckage of the civilian plane which was shot down with the help of [Russian 53rd Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/53rd_Anti-Aircraft_Missile_Brigade) just to remind people with what barbaric cunts we are fighting. (source: [bellingcat investigation](https://www.bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-europe/2014/09/08/images-show-the-buk-that-downed-flight-mh17-inside-russia-controlled-by-russian-troops/))

    More to the point both France and Germany voted [for Russian return to PACE](https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/c68gea/how_countries_voted_for_russias_return_to_pace/), the organisation ‘*dedicated to upholding human rights, democracy and the rule of law*’ as wikipedia says (direct [source link](http://assembly.coe.int/nw/xml/Votes/DB-VotesResults-EN.asp?VoteID=38007&DocID=19023&MemberID=)), France representatives being the vast majority after Italy (another famous russian boot lickers, but at least they dont pretend to care about russo-ukrainian war so i will give them a pass). Russia was kicked out of PACE in 2014 for invading Ukraine. You can keep saying appeasing words but do the opposite behind the scenes

  5. >Deja vu. 1939

    Honestly sounds like an empty talk.

    How about putting sanctions against Russian oligarchs, bureaucrats, and their children that are living and have assets in EU. It would be definitely more effective than giving empty promises.

  6. Can the EU stop paying to import fucking russian gas already? How stupid do we have to be to let Putin have this leverage over us? Destroy that fucking pipeline already.

  7. Since the US has already sent a shipment of ammunition and the UK has promised to send paratroops if requested, I would think the necessary signals (unless the Kremlin is blind and cannot hear) have been transmitted: *”whatever the troop buildup is about, it would be a bad idea to use them against Ukraine”*.

    Since Ukraine is not in chaos like in 2014, and is unlikely to be surprised, I think the Russian troops that cause concern will eventually return where they came from.

  8. Putin will throw his weight knowing full well Europe will do everything to prevent WWIII.

    Hes almost 70 so he might be at the point where he says fuck it and rolls the dice, throws the world into chaos.

    Europe needs to big dick this situation and draw a line, France and Germany will need to lead it

  9. “I don’t know what world war 4 will be fought with, but ww3 will be fought with baguettes”

  10. Does anyone genuinely believe France is actually going to do something if Russia makes another land grab? Like anything requiring a military commitment? Or will some oligarch just get sanctioned?

  11. This is a bunch of nonsense. Instead of pretending they’ll fight for Ukraine, Europeans need to stop giving out visas to all Russians, stop allowing their students to study in your universities, stop investing.

  12. I’m French but what I don’t understand is the government wants to loosen ties with US precisely because US/Russia have become more belligerent… but yet here we are….And, Macron literally said a couple weeks ago that they wanted friendlier ties with Russia which is why Baltic states have been less than friendly with us. I’m getting serious mixed messages here

  13. I think this is slightly taken out of context. He says he is in favor of Ukrainian territorial integrity, while also not specifying how it will be defended.

    It seems like just an empty statement. Every EU country was also against Russia taking Crimea, but look what happened there.
