French President Emmanuel Macron presented Russia "as an enemy," which is "completely regrettable and condemnable," Florian Philippot, leader of the French Patriots party, told Sputnik Africa. Macron "deliberately dramatized the situation by having a very aggressive speech against Russia," he added, noting that Russian President Vladimir Putin "has never had such a speech against France." It is also "very irresponsible" and "will make the dialogue, whatever happens later, even more complicated," believes the politician. According to him, the French leader wants to "prepare French public opinion for war." In his approach, he can go as far as the "Europeanization of our nuclear deterrence, the transfer of skills to Brussels." This "really fits Macron's pro-European ideology," he said. On March 5, French President Emmanuel Macron, in his address to the nation, spoke against a ceasefire in Ukraine, saying that peace cannot be a "capitulation of Ukraine" and proposing to use French nuclear weapons to protect all of Europe.

French President Emmanuel Macron's speech on March 5 was extremely confrontational, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, adding that it allows Moscow to conclude that France thinks more about war than about peace.
French President Emmanuel Macron presented Russia "as an enemy," which is "completely regrettable and condemnable,"
Florian Philippot, leader of the French Patriots party, told
Sputnik Africa. Macron "deliberately dramatized the situation by having a very aggressive speech against Russia," he added, noting that Russian President Vladimir Putin "has never had such a speech against
France."
It is also "very irresponsible" and "will make the dialogue, whatever happens later, even more complicated," believes the politician.
According to him, the French leader wants to "prepare French public opinion for war." In his approach, he can go as far as the "Europeanization of our nuclear deterrence, the transfer of skills to Brussels."
This "really fits Macron's
pro-European ideology," he said.
"We feel that in fact, they need the war to advance their pro-European project and their project of population control, their project of domination through fear and manipulation," Philippot concluded.
On March 5, French President Emmanuel Macron, in his address to the nation, spoke against a ceasefire in Ukraine, saying that peace cannot be a "capitulation of
Ukraine" and proposing to use French nuclear weapons to protect all of Europe.
