My apologies to France: what is wrong with Macron?

 

My apologies to France:  what’s wrong with Macron?

He looks to be Trump-like mentality. Is it that Macron has become a member of the “absolute idiots?” Or is it that he always been that? Does he know the meaning of: “UNITE AND WINS, DIVIDE AND LOSE”. CAN FRANCE APORT BILLIONS OF DOLLARS EACH AND EVERY YEAR AS NEEDED TO PROTECT EUROPE? CAN FRANCE, AS OF NOW, UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF MACRON, GUARANTEE A PENSION OR RETIREMENT INCREASE TO ITS CITIZENS THAT ARE DEMANDING NOT TO TOUCH THE LIVING HOOD OF THEIR FUTURE AS THE FRUIT OF THEIR SOCIAL SACRIFICE MADE WORKING YEARS AND YEARS AND THEN DELAY THAT FUTURE A COUPLE OF YEARSS AFTER WORKING SO HARD ALL THEIR LIVES AND IN THE FINAL EPOCH OF TRHEIR LIVES …STILL WAIT LONGER? France shall not succumb after it went through a hard and dangerous history just because a man, a sole man. After other nations went to help their brother nation: FRANCE! …get liberated from a terrorist of he second War World that almost would have eradicate this beautiful country. Viva Francia!

France is a real great nation, its language, its food, its people, and the root of HUMAN RIGHTS declaration, a universal AXION, appendix of the human existence, the adjective of Democracy. And now this…

See a portion of an analysis, Mr. Tim Collins wrote in “The Telegraph” and all of it in the link below after.

That’s odd, because the EU – as distinct from Nato – has theoretically had a variety of different rapid-response forces for decades, way back to the European Rapid Operational Force announced in 1995 (and disbanded in 2012). The latest foolish plan along these lines is French President Macron’s call last month for a European army able to act independently of the US and Nato, including a 5,000-strong “rapid response force”.

In fairness to Macron, he was the one who called the warring Sudanese generals and brokered a ceasefire of sorts, which has helped a lot with the initial rescue efforts. He was pushing on an open door as it was in the interests of both sides for foreigners to leave unscathed, but it was nonetheless a minor diplomatic win for Macron.

Macron, of course, needs every win he can get given the fact that France is basically in a state of insurrection now. The other lever that French presidents traditionally reach for in times of domestic crisis is bashing the US or Nato. Macron’s recent calls for an EU rapid response force could be dismissed as a swipe at Nato, except that he is apparently serious about trying to develop some kind of EU-only military capability.

It’s not the most foolish insult to Nato and the USA that a French president has ever offered – that would probably be the “get out and stay out” call by Charles De Gaulle in 1966 – but it is intensely rude and unhelpful in these tense times. Macron’s apologists would doubtless point to the Aukus pact and argue that the UK and US are drifting away from the defence of Europe; but Aukus is exactly the opposite of that. It is a focus on the real emerging threat: China.  

We must remember that Nato was formed in 1947, the same year that the US Joint Chiefs of Staff stood up to address the new threats of a Cold War world. Today there is talk of creating a civilian equivalent of the Joint Chiefs to manage US civilian departments effectively and efficiently against the burgeoning Chinese menace. France could learn from this sort of thinking”
