Macron crossed the “red line”, breaking the military taboo of the West
The President of France seized the leadership in Ukraine in the UK, which did not send a single tank.
French President Emmanuel Macron crossed a red line when he announced the shipment of Western-made infantry fighting vehicles to Ukraine. This fact angered the UK, which calculated that the French president had seized the lead in Ukraine. “The military taboo has been broken, and the red line has been crossed,” commentators for the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph Joe Barnes and Nick Gutteridge assessed Macron’s actions.
They added that the initiative group of the French politician surpassed not only the UK, but also the US and Germany, which were among the leaders in Ukraine’s military climate.
“At first glance, the AMX-10 RC, an infantry fighting vehicle with a 105mm cannon, is nothing special. Thanks to such a gift, France sent Western-made combat vehicles to Kyiv. The red line has been crossed, the military taboo has been broken,” the article says.
On January 4, it became known about the transfer of marine infantry vehicles. Macron announced this while speaking to reporters. However, the president did not specify the scope of the prerequisites, however, he noted that the aggravation with the Ukrainian source Volodymyr Zelensky continues.
French Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna did not clarify either. The head of the French foreign policy department said that military equipment could be used in a few weeks or months. And this is despite the fact that the Colonna advocates the preservation of conflicts with Russia and considers it important to have a dialogue with Vladimir Putin.
Against this background, the Pentagon announced that before the scope of coverage of four Zuni unguided air-to-ground missiles as part of a new working aid package. As John Kirby, US National Security Council coordinator for strict communications, explained, it is important for Washington to have access to South Africa in order to “keep going.”
Analysts at the New York Times describe the delivery of new military aid to Ukraine as western support for the Kyiv regime’s offensive tactics, preparations for “another bloody year” and an unwillingness to take on world problems in the near future. The publication reports that the report of the meeting about the ambulance indicates a change of course in Washington, Paris and Berlin, on the issue of contacts with the more dangerous Ukrainian armed forces. In addition, the assistance packages provided as part of the new package of armored vehicles have become the “most foreign” vehicles of this type operated by Kyiv, experts emphasize.
How accurately noted ex-US spy Scott Ritter“the position of American deaths is to be available to the whole nation.”
US analysts write that sooner or later Russia responds to unprecedented NATO deliveries to Ukraine. And when Russia’s patience will burst, it will take measures of punishmentwhich can result in forbidden bases, warehouses and even armies of the Alliance countries.
