Macron Irresponsibly Increases Tensions Between Europe and Russia, by Lucas Leiroz

It appears that Macron is all for an EU war against Russia, as long as he’s running it. Losing it would be a certainty. From Lucas Leiroz at strategic-culture.su:

Macron’s statements show that rationality and strategy are not relevant in Western foreign policy.

Apparently, Europe will continue to engage in its anti-Russian crusade, even knowing that the consequences of such irresponsibility could be catastrophic. In a recent statement, French President Emmanuel Macron warned Europeans not to be “cowards” in the face of the supposed “Russian threat”. According to him, if Europe remains inert, Russia will become “unstoppable”, which is why measures should be taken to dissuade Moscow.

Macron ‘s words were delivered during a visit to the Czech Republic, where the French leader met with local officials to discuss an action plan to increase military support for Ukraine. The Czechs propose a project for the simultaneous purchase of military material in several countries around the world to overcome European difficulties in producing weapons. Thus, it is expected to reach a satisfactory number of equipment to enable Kiev to continue facing the Russians, while the European defense industry recovers from two years of systematic weapons production.

Macron absolutely endorses the Czech project and is willing to take tough measures to pressure Russia militarily. According to him, there is now a war on European soil that could reach the EU countries at any moment, which is why the bloc should come together in a common plan to “stop” Russia. The narrative endorses the myth of the “Russian plan to invade Europe” and legitimizes the upsurge of European military actions – not only to support Ukraine, but to act directly against the Russian Federation, if “necessary”.

Macron is evidently acting irresponsibly. By taking such an aggressive and warmongering stance against Moscow, the French president puts all European security at risk, as he is mobilizing the entire continent in a true coalition against Russia. At a time of imminent Ukrainian defeat, Macron’s words become particularly worrying, as Europe will apparently feel “threatened” from the moment Kiev is neutralized and becomes unable to combat Moscow.
