French experts: Macron is not Charles de Gaulle at all, France will not be withdrawn from NATO

56

The French media, including television, continue to discuss the possible reaction of official Paris to the US actions to create the AUKUS military axis. Recall that a few days ago, the Australians terminated the contract with France for the construction of submarines, which was estimated at almost $ 40 billion. The place of the French will be taken by the Americans, who will build nuclear submarines for Canberra. In addition to the United States and Australia, Great Britain entered a virtually new military bloc. France was not invited to the union.

French experts are commenting in this regard on the proposal of the deputy Jean-Luc Melanchon on the need to refuse to open a NATO (de facto - American) center in Toulouse and on the withdrawal of France from the North Atlantic military alliance. At the same time, it should be noted that if the liberal circles of France are calling for "weighing the situation and the consequences", then even the centrists believe that such a demarche on the part of the allies cannot be left unanswered.



On a political talk show on French TV:

NATO has ceased to be interested in France's opinion at all. It's getting harder and harder not to notice.

One of the former employees of the French Ministry of Defense noted that the United States has recently interacted with its French counterparts in the military and military-technical spheres only where it is beneficial to the United States itself. French interests are not taken into account.

Just noticed now?

Le Figaro, a major French publication, publishes an article by analyst Emmanuel Derville, where the situation with the alliance and Australia's withdrawal from the contract was called "a resounding American-Australian slap in the face of France."

France24 channel quotes French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, who called the situation "not a new American-Australian romance, but an undermining of confidence in military alliances."

The experts in the studio, commenting on the minister's words, noted that the level of trust in NATO among the French had dropped to the level of 50 years ago. Recall that in 1966, Charles de Gaulle withdrew France from the military agreements of the North Atlantic bloc. Paris returned to all NATO structures only in 2007.

At the same time, French experts believe that Macron will not agree to leave NATO under any circumstances:

Macron is not Charles de Gaulle at all. He will not withdraw France from NATO, although he himself had previously said that the bloc suffered brain death. It turns out that we remain in a military bloc that has no brains left. If this is in our interests, then what are our interests then? ..

Another expert:

I don't know about brains ... But in NATO there is definitely no respect for alliance partners, and we have no self-respect

        The most annoying thing for the paddling pool is that the proposed boats were actually converted by a specialist for a kangaroo under a conventional French nuclear engine .. That is, they were originally suitable for the new requirements - but, for the purpose of non-proliferation of nuclear military technologies, they were castrated ..

          In general, in this case, one must take into account the symbiotic UNION of SURVIVAL in the EU between France and the FRG that has developed in recent decades. Namely.

          If Germany in this symbiotic alliance with France in the EU has a strong - POWERFUL - economy, then France, while possessing its own nuclear weapons, is its military cover. In principle, this was the internal political and economic basis for the formation of an EU, more or less independent of the US, in Western Europe.
          Accordingly, in this case, if France leaves NATO, then in a certain sense it will also be a blow to the economic national interests of Germany itself, in particular, to Germany's independent decision on the construction and operation of the SP-2.
          These things are interconnected.

          In total, France's withdrawal from NATO is also tied to the national interests of Germany itself!

          In order to leave NATO, France, objectively, really needs an economically independent ally, independent of the United States and nationally oriented towards the development of its own country, in Europe itself with a stronger economy than France. Germany Kohl and Angela Merkel have been such an ally for France in recent decades.
          Now is not the Deglev era for a long time.

          As a result. Thus, we have that the military alliance of the USA, Great Britain and Australia is also indirectly aimed at SUPPRESSING the independent independence of the same Germany as the leading economic power in Western Europe with PRESENTATION by Washington in the EU of its American national interests on the same gas issues in general, including the "SP-2".

            But it cannot be ruled out that this will lead to the opposite - the rapprochement of Germany and France and the strengthening of the advancement of the EU's own forces (the British left the EU), will start small (rapid deployment forces), and then how will things go ... NATO leadership somehow clearly not happy with such EU movements

              British left the EU

              "Englishwoman" now, on the one hand, - militarily - is the United States in the wings!
              On the other hand, the "Englishwoman" continues, as in the past centuries, oppressing its sovereign colonial policy in the world. Namely.

              At the same time, one should not forget that in the US Federal Reserve Bank of England has a permanent representative office, while the representative offices of banks in other countries are replaced after a certain period. This suggests that the geopolitics of Great Britain in the same USA - through the US Federal Reserve System as a globalist financial instrument - remains the same in the world in time, i.e. colonially not replaceable.
              In this sense, relations between the United States and the "Englishwomen" are periodically such that either "the tail rules the dog" or "the dog drives the tail"!

              TOTAL. In this sense, Great Britain and the United States are more geopolitical colonizers-ALLIES, not opponents, although there is competition between them for influential primacy in their political and economic bloc.

Will the EU's unification in military matters be the answer to the strengthening of Anglo .. and even with them unification? Estonia turned to the EU on air defense not to NATO, but to the EU, not forgetting to remind about the strategic autonomy of the EU, why would it be ... states after Afghanistan are losing confidence, and then this story with Australia ...

                  This is the BIGGEST question for Macron and France!
                  And this question rests on the EU's recognition of the NORMAL legitimacy for Russia of the launch of the "SP-2" by Gazprom!

                  Moreover. It is not for nothing that the West - in France, for example - remembered ALLOYING with Russia - right up to the recognition of Crimea as Russian!

                  This is essentially an objective change in the geopolitical course of France!
                  Moreover, the United States itself creates geopolitical prerequisites for this.

    He will do the right thing. After all, they are provoking him to this so that France becomes outside NATO and loses its ties with the European NATO countries, primarily Germany ...
    Macron can remain in NATO, but sabotage its development and, on the contrary, establish economic ties with the Russian Federation and the PRC in his former colonies in Africa ...
    First of all, it is necessary to hit the economies of the henchmen of the United States - Great Britain and Australia, let them know that they are suffering because of the United States ...
