France says it will work with China on de-esclatating Iran war

French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot held a call on Monday with his ​Chinese counterpart Wang Yi to discuss ‌the Iran war and both agreed to work on de-escalation, Barrot's office said in a statement.

Both ministers ​committed to seeking a political solution ​that would guarantee collective security and take ⁠into account the aspirations of the ​Iranian people, the statement said.

Barrot "reiterated the Iranian ​regime's responsibility for the ongoing escalation, after it unjustifiably attacked several countries in the region," the statement ​said.

He also criticised the Iranian regime for ​refusing to respect the resolutions from the United Nations' ‌Security ⁠Council on the nuclear programmes, ballistic activities, support to non-state armed groups and rejecting good-faith multilateral negotiations.

It appears POTUS Trump is exposing NATO. I know some NATO members have a growing muslim population but must the US appease them too?

I say, GET THE USA THE HELL OUT OF NATO NOW!!

Hopefully, France could give some advice to Iran on surrendering with a minimal amount of bloodshed.

Is ‘de-escalating’ really mean ‘surrendering’ since the French are really good at that?

The French are scoundrels. The EU is overrun and afraid of the diversity they created.

Both countries, among others, want to sell their arms to whatever is left.

Scoundrels indeed - after WW2, it appears that the European nations merely exported their internecine eternal war to other venues.

Surrendering the centrifuges and enriched uranium are at the top of the list.

I suspect the nuclear reactor under construction has been dealt with.

The Iranians are dropping cluster bombs now. One just hit Tel Aviv. I think they have certainly already passed the point of no return.

Disbanding the Revolutionary Guard and the retirement of its personnel are probably also on Trump’s list.

That’s like ‘working with Italy’ to end WW2.

FU France. Macaroon should take a walk through one of the 11 cemeteries in France where brave young American soldiers are buried, and remember their sacrifices for his F’d up nation. What a tool.

If someone has access to the ‘Belly Girl’ pic in which she’s holding a sign telling France to shut the hell up, now would be a good time to post it.
