The only nuclear power in the European Union (EU) with one of the ten most powerful militaries in the world. It might seem like it could be a strong shoulder of support for the country struggling against the bloody threat of the entire region, but since February 24, the European power France led by Emmanuel Macron has heard both flattering remarks to Russian President Vladimir Putin and countless conversations telephone calls with the dictator with an incomprehensible outcome.
Although Macron called Putin, asked him to help him “save face” and talked about “security guarantees” for Russia, at the same time France provides military support to Ukraine and was the first among Western countries to announce the transfer of French AMX -10 RC fighting vehicles to Ukraine. This is the first announcement of upcoming deliveries of this level of Western-made combat equipment to the war-torn country.
Does this mean a change in Macron’s stance on talks with Putin and arms deliveries to Kiev?
