On Monday, Macron caused quite a stir when he apparently suggested deploying Western troops against Russia. These comments didn’t go down well with Germany’s Scholz, so, in this video, we take a look at Franco-German relationship, and how this falling out might change the balance of power within Europe.

    German is pretty much useless wen it comes to defense of Europe, a few years ago the Green party in German was calling for just simply not spending on the military instead focus on green energy

    What this title wants us to believe: French and German people at each others throats

    What is actually happening: Bunch of politicians on both sides have a disagreement with each other

    I don’t want it to get worse but question if Putin wins, what do you think is going to happen Ukraine’s going to run out of soldiers before Russia does I seriously don’t see how it’s not going to happen I don’t want US troops or any other countries troops in Ukraine. It’s a huge case of your fighting in someone else’s backyard so that you don’t need to fight in your backyard. It’s a hell scape this whole situation.

    Where has France been in the last two years?
    If Europe had done its duty, this war would have been long over and we wouldn't have to discuss these hypotheticals.

    One must not forget that the current German chancellor is a highly corrupt criminal with a leftist backstory. Being a young politician he traveled to the GDR on multiple occasions, originating from the STAMOKAP wing of his party SPD. In his time as maior of Hamburg he would be connetected to economic crimes (Warburg Bank, Wirecard etc.) and in person to probable Russian soy Jan Masalek – being in Moscow now. In the end Scholz is stubborn to a degree of not being willing or even able to accept criticism or communicate his decisions.

    Europe is not a panacea, but together we are stronger! However, the European "disorder" of the U€ cannot continue to function like this! We need a real European Army now. It is not surprising that a Russia, with a practically revolted mercenary army, is very capable of invading a colorless Ukraine, which only exists on the basis of a European uproar of alliances and (in essence) fragile counter-alliances of conflicting interests that are even easier to confront. After seeing this European mess of fundamentally opposed relations, I now fully understand how both China and Russia are increasingly obtaining an obvious geostrategic, military and commercial ADVANTAGE over this European commercial and political catastrophe and even more so over the isolationist one, autarkic and dying UK.

    The western media in general reveals enough to result in defeat. Its a betrayal of our armed forces.

    It was Germany that invaded France in World War Two, I would of thought France would be better having a special relationship with Russia then puting their chances with Germany again I live in the Western world I believe our leaders here need to think carefully before taking their chances with Russia, and there Allies China to…
