FIn an interview with The Economist, French President Emmanuel Macron once again raised the possibility of sending Western ground troops to Ukraine. According to him, this could happen in the event that Russia breaks through the front line and Kiev asks for help. AFP informs about the interview.
“If the Russians were to break through the front line, if there were enough Ukrainians – which is not the case today – we should legitimately ask ourselves this question (about aid),” Macron was heard to say, having similarly come out several times.
He won’t be able to see, but I’m afraid he will. What are ATACMS missiles really for?

In Norway, the French president caused a stir by saying that fallen allies should not send troops to Ukraine. In March, in an interview with the newspaper Le Parisien, he declared that France may at some point be forced to launch a ground operation in Ukraine to defeat Russian forces. According to him, the earth is prepared for all things.
“Excluding it a priori means not taking advantage of the last two years,” he revealed now in an interview with The Economist. According to him, the NATO forces first decided to send tanks and planes to Ukraine, but then changed their view to help the country attacked by Russia.
Ukraine has been defending itself against Russian armed aggression for less than two years, and failed financial aid and supplies of weapons and litter play a significant role in its strength. However, the several-point delay in the supply of weapons equipment and ammunition from the USA, caused by American internal political disputes, has meant that Russia now has a foothold at the front of the country, especially in the air force, and its messages are advancing in some places. The Ukrainian military commander also complained about the complex situation.
