Russia warned French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday not to threaten it with nuclear rhetoric and, mocking his height by calling him "Micron," ruled out European proposals to send peacekeeping forces from NATO members to Ukraine.
Macron said in an address to the nation on Wednesday that Russia was a threat to Europe, Paris could discuss extending its nuclear umbrella to allies and that he would hold a meeting of army chiefs from European countries willing to send peacekeeping troops to Ukraine after a peace deal.
The Kremlin said the speech was extremely confrontational and that Macron wanted the war in Ukraine to continue.
"This (speech) is, of course, a threat against Russia," Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.
"Unlike their predecessors, who also wanted to fight against Russia, Napoleon, Hitler, Mr. Macron does not act very gracefully, because at least they said it bluntly: ‘We must conquer Russia, we must defeat Russia.’"

Sorry but that the pot calling the kettle black
Russia needs to reign it it rhetoric about nukes if they want everyone else to do it
This is like a bully at a bar hitting someone then crying that they got hit back
Aw jeez, they’ve been reading Free Republic. That’s what we’ve been calling him for a long time.
Next, they’ll start calling the British PM “Starmtrooper”...
Who is that little man in the bottom right of the screen, Zelenskyy with a new hair color?
The war cheerleaders have yet to smell their stench…..just one look at their leadership, Biden, Macron, Scholtz, Starmer,Trudeau, Ursula,etc says a lot.
A ship of corrupted fools.
WTF is Macron doing making nuclear war threats against Russia?
That is totally irresponsible and just flat wrong.
LOL I think it is someone using sign language
And as much as I dislike the USSR and Putin in particular, I have to agree.
The world would be a much better place if everyone would mind their own business and quit being belligerent azzholes.
Foreign troops in Ukraine? Nyet!!!
Ukraine in NATO? Nyet!
Silly rhetoric. France has fewer than 300 warheads, Russia has over 5500.
Clever, snaky remarks are always great fun right up until the warheads MIRV from the bus.
Wanting to shoot down nukes, saving millions of lives, is somehow confused with firing nukes, and ending millions of lives. There’s juuuuuuuust a bit of difference between those two initiatives!!!!!
Dribbling the $300 billion back to Russia is the way to go. The Russians can’t spend it all at once anyway.
The Russians will reach Odessa before agreeing to have foreign ‘peacekeeping’ troops from the EU.
i think it’s HYSTERICAL and i love it! :)
micron, fake tough guy letting muslims own his country
Life is hard for neocons right now.
and, mocking his height by calling him “Micron,”
LOL, I could imagine Trump thinking, “Dang, why didn’t I think of that!”
Why is Putin not on your list? You know, the one who actually started this war?
