8:51, 9:51 etc What a horrible piece of guest. Almost acting like someone is threatening her. It's a news-discussion, it's normal if somebody interacts with you for gods sake. Please don't invite her again France24. Find somebody else with the same viewpoint that she stands for, but at least somebody that understands that a conversation isn't a threath.
Oh, she is just lively. That nonsense does detract from productive conversation. Patience is a virtue. I thought the Ecology representative was very astute in considering patience. Still, have you seen US political debates? It could be *much* worse. You must admit, powerloading 3 to 5 questions before an answer can be given is not kind either. Still, a more patient person would have simply picked the best one to answer.
How many countries in the EU will want France to be their security guarantor? If France could defend itself, it wouldn't be a part of NATO. France has donated very little military aid to Ukraine, yet Macron had the audacity to say that the West should be open to sending troops to Ukraine. Macron and the EU can send troops to Ukraine. It doesn't have to be under NATO.
Your comment show your lack of knowledge on everything... France ? - The 2nd weapon supplier in the world - The 3rd nuclear power in the world - The only nuclear power in Europe - The Headquarter of Airbus, the 1st or 2nd plane company in the world - The Headquarter of The European Space Agency - The country with the most victories in his history (google it to check) - The country with the largest sea domain in the world (it's France or the US, don't remember) - The country who has the most nuclear factories - The country where the Radium has been discovered (no radium: no radiography, no nuclear bomb ...) Should I continue ? Or maybe you want to go back to school ?...
Ukraine needs its arms, and unkowningly arguing their citizens should fight street to street as under-equipped militias in an entirely occupied ukraine is offensive. They need help, not abandonment in the guise of goodness.
why build a entire industry that costs money they dont have --- the usa will sell EXCELLENT CRAP on a payment plan you simply cant refuse ---------- literally you cant refuse so dont try
Macron has actually been very forward-thinking on this one. He’s pushed a built-in-Europe defense-industrial policy for years. Unfortunately, most other European states-most conspicuously Germany and Poland-are still perfectly happy to buy American (and now Korean). I’m on Macron’s side of this debate, personally. The U.S. isn’t a reliable partner any longer. The MAGA wing has repeatedly demonstrated a willingness to abandon America’s allies at the slightest inconvenience. Europe needs to rely on itself.
@@marktrinidad7650 newsflash he is not alone in europe.... He can only pledge. Key partner here is Germany and now even more the eastern european countries.
you gotta love how easy it is to figure out who is under putin's thumb... it's easier than finding waldo. Also, the lady that wants appeasement, go back to school and learn what happened between WW1 and WW2
Ukraine 🇺🇦 gave up its nuclear weapons according to the Minsk Agreement. The Russian Federation broke that agreement. Therefore, the EU should replace those nuclear weapons with similar ones to Ukraine.

One of the first things immigrants do when they come to the US is learn as much English as they can and encourage their children to learn it as well, because if they don't, they know their kids will be joining them out in the fields picking tomatoes as well. In fact, most 2nd generations often forget their parents mother tongue or never learnt it in the first place, even at home....
Mate, National Rally has been considered far-right since Le Pen’s dad claimed Frenchmen didn’t participate in the Holocaust (spoiler: quite a few did). This ain’t new. You need better media.
Interesting to hear them repeatedly say things like "against the likes of the United States and China." I thought Europe and the United States were on the same team. They make it sound like three opposing blocks.
Macron has created his own version of MAGA… kind of a MEGA Europe First policy. Im all for it, as an American tax payer i look forward to Europeans paying for their own national security.
I like this debate for the diverse opinions. However, the manner here is far off. The Host should not allow someone who is louder ruder getting more opportunities and time. My opinion is biggest problems here is low productivity. Europeans need to change their culture or allow massive deregulation on ai and let automation help reduce the dependency on the other part of the world.
You make an excellent point with respect to EU productivity, and you also make a fine observation with respect to the management of the guests of the debate.
Tell me then, which continent is the one making the dodgy Boeing 737 Max planes? That's right, America. Be careful in your rush for "productivity", you might just put passengers lives in danger.
@@evaburnzThank you for the comment. Perhaps as an outsider I can view the issues here with a neutral position. I found the public here and the leads in the autocratic world don’t like the ugly truth, somehow kind of spoiled. No pay no gain, long term or short term interests you cannot have both of them. What people proud of here are brilliant and meanwhile not business friendly, except bureaucracy all should not be changed. However AI adoption can help to leverage the high cost here but also bring the risk of abuse…
About what? Strategic Autonomy? Because what the lady said about Macron being a hypocrite is correct. France is #17 in Europe for aid given to Ukraine. For a man that claims to be autonomous and tough on Putin, he surely isn't showing it but with words
He most certainly is not totally wrong, nor is he totally right. The EU should be responsible for its own security and have an alliance with Britain, the US, Canada, and Turkey.
I thought I was going to watch a sensible debate by sensible people ! All I heard were a bunch of kindergarten kids squabbling ! ! What a waste of time . I hope none of these peanuts have any positions of power my goodness 😫 😩 😐
As an American with no horse in this race, I must say, I find the utter breakdown in decorum here to be reassuring and refreshing. I thought only American political debates degenerate into verbal sparing and shouting matches. I feel so much better now. 😟

It's nothing but a money racket for US defence contractors as is, taking money out of Europe when it could easily stay here, if Europeans could grow up and stop living in a bubble protected by Uncle Sam. France has been a military power in Europe since the Romans were sent packing, of course they're going to be highly involved.
This was the most chaotic debate yet. I started watching f24 debate a few months ago. If this was my first time watching, I wouldn't be watching again.
What a horrible guest this lady keeps demanding to speak when she just finished 😂. Francois keep ur guests in line man these kind of guests just walk over you
Less EU is better, much less EU! In the early 1960's Charles de Gaulle made it clear to British PM Harold McMillan that he did not want a federal state! He wanted to preserve that diversity that could be found in European countries!
Ok, who's going to enroll at that military academy? Europe can hardly find students for ordinary universities, if it wasn't for foreign students half of European universities had to shut down! EU must understand that cannot have everything at the same time!
I love how EU leaders keep talking about stopping climate change, yet they seem to not give a s*it about Romania aggressively and illegally being deforested by Austrian companies, as if the environment somehow has borders and others are not affected by it.
Yeah but its all bs. So they cut down trees in the US, then they are turned in wood snippers and sent by boat to Europe where they are burnt for energy. This is considered environmental friendly by the EU. It makes zero sense.
Patricia and the other detractor, 1. France is only a price-taker in commodity import prices, AS high energy prices are externally set!. 2. What nonsense and wishful thinking for wanting less integration/ more independence among EU nations!! If you don't have solid cooperation now, what can you expect with 27 independent nations- A FREE FOR ALL!
The mortal danger is if the current sets in the EU Commission and EU Council remain. That would mean continued malfeasance and will spell the end of the EU and Europe.
Nah the people in this comment section are wrong, this was one of the healthier and better debates. Diverse opinions and strong opponets. No one wants a "why yes I agree to disagree" A debate shouldnt have name calling but should be nasty in the sense that two sides are back and forthing.
Honestly and this point we need a frenchman as eu president. They the only one with a healthy mindset regarding our position in the world. The lack of strategic oversight here in germany and the rest of the eu is leading us straight into the abyss. Also we gonna need to care about putins puppy Orban. Make europe great again!
Mr. Charlie very polity and explained very well what have been asked. Instead of only interrupting others participants all the time and name-calling others. Like other participants have done.
WELL DONE! Good lively debate in ENGLISH for french TV and country and ongoing and very excellent achievement to have news in english also, great topic on this show, and very good points and arguments brought up by participants, -tibor
The hosts constant interrupting and attempting entrapment is rather hostile. Almost as bad as the host of Conflict Zone on DW, is this standard for Euro News?
Europe? What is Europe, first America won't allow European countries to have a say on this world so europeans will be like this for the time being. Look Germany when it wanted to buy Russian gas without an American say, Macron and people like him who want European to have their own he better look him self before it is too late. America should look now what these people in Europe are doing behind their back.😊
Agree with a lot of what he says, but don't agree with how he engages with 'partners' or really his actions (or lack thereof). I'm not sure exactly what he wants.
What is a hyperpower except a term to make non-superpowers feel special? We didnt subsidize the internet or advertising. We let wealth accumulate and are benefiting from deep pockets looking for places to invest. We subsidize oil whereas EU subsidizes food; one is needed by people, the other by the economy. To stimulate the economy, create a surplus of the raw inputs. We created a surplus of capital following a surplus of energy and infrastructure. Im actually starting to see why we aren't funding education more; EU does but without support for business, whats it really worth?
Macron is right. We need to be less dependent on US, we need if not one army, but for sure armies which train together regularly. And we need weapon made in EU!!! Otherwise during the war our suppliers can say, sorry guys delivery will be late one year ;) So You like him or not he talks sence. Regards from Poland.
The comment about Brussels dictating solutions for all countries to follow does cause enormous problems. Different countries have different infrastructures and different ways of working. There needs to be autonomy within countries with working practices that just follow a broad directive around policies. Micro managing does not work.
I think their English speaking accents given they alll probably speak French at home is intriguing. When I turn in French news I expect an adorable accent like the socialist
I was surprised to see people arguing for negotiations with Putin. Negotiations, if they could achieve what these people envision, would give Putin the Ukrainian territory his military has taken. Negotiations would reward Putin. The idea that French forces would fight in Ukraine seems to be going in the right direction. That is only a suggestion at the moment, but Europe needs to think about what Putin's invasion of Ukraine means for Europe.
What if say tax the wealthy people? Do you think they are not taxed enough? What if we all think rational. Who do you think will invest in something who has chance to success 1%? George Westinghouse etc...
What is EU without USA ? nothing ,Ucraine is EU business not USA ,EU over 500 millions people with economy many many times more strong than Russia and cry asking help from USA to fight Russia, I thing Macron is right . Europe help you self. Sorry for my English.

The idea that French forces would fight in Ukraine seems to be going in the right direction. That is only a suggestion at the moment, but Europe needs to think about what Putin's invasion of Ukraine means for Europe.
keep Macron as long as he does more for Ukraine
Rodwell's insufferable. Skipping this episode.
