heaven forbid the guy apply the lessons of the treaty of versailles to this situation.
unlike many here, who think a ‘war guilt’ clause and reparations isn’t even enough punishment.
He shoulda asked Mom first.
This entire debacle could probably be done and over with if macaroon would just offer France up to pootski and forget about Ukraine. Heck of lot fewer killed and wounded right? Notre Dame is already ruined so...........
You can always count on the French. For nothing.
Translation: This situation has become a mess. Inflation, energy and debt and will likely take down governments in Western Europe too. We need a way out.
Russia is slowly grinding away at Ukraine, and appears on a path to either take the entire country or just chew off the eastern portion and stay there (at Putin’s choice). So Macron is looking forward to the West appeasing that, and returning to normalcy with Russia. Until Russia’s next aggression.
RUSSIA/PUTIN murdered thousands of innocent people!..... F’em forever!!
As the Americans withdraw, Europe is going to reshuffle. France will come out on top. Macron knows this is Russia’s last gasp and he knows France has the most to gain when it finally goes under. He’s positioning for that reality.
On one hand naked aggression should be humiliated. And on the other hand, is Macron really so stupid as to think Russia has made a mistake in conquering parts of the Ukraine?
Macron wants his assets who were captured in Azovstal Steel Plant back.
Joe Biden’s incompetent foreign policy led to this debacle. Trump could have solved this problem between holes of golf.
It’s going to end when Russia decides it has had enough of Ukraine to feel comfortable with their position that when it’s understood that when they say no more incursion of NATO into former Soviet States,they mean it.
Joe Biden is bumbling his way into WWIII.
These are tough days for Bidenista warmongers aren’t they?
There is nothing Europe has that China doesn’t already produce. Add in 1 billion people in India thirsty for raw materials and its clear to all but those stuck in the old world order that Russia has broken from Europe/USA
Western Europe will be the ones begging by fall. No modern economies can sustain the inflationary squeeze coming and that includes this country with 6 dollar diesel and blackouts on the horizon
Macron is happy to seek peace giving away someone else’s territory.
So, how do we *not humiliate* Putin? Let him win? Sort of like the clumsy kid, you let him get a home run once in a while, just to make him feel like he’s one of the guys...? So let Putin carve out a chunk of land just so he can feel like he can hold his head up around the other heads of state?
Turn the headline around... socialists always project... Biden/US & NATO must not appear humiliated by Putin.
I don’t know about the Russophiles here, but the Russian military has some big problems.
Methinks Vlad should already be embarrassed.

Russia is best on defense. This they impressively did against the Mongols for hundreds of years, Napoleon, and Hitler. But Russia tends to screw the pooch on the attack, like they did against Imperial Japan, Poland, Finland, Afghanistan, and now Ukraine.
Russia wasn't even interested in anything but saving the ethnically Russian part of the country from extermination at the hands of the neo-Nazi and Ukrainian nationalists when this war began. Now, thanks to the Biden regime, who are stupid as you, they may be forced to take more territory to protect what the territory that will become part of the Russian Federation.
