- Macron announced that will France send military personnel directly to Ukraine to train and equip a 4,500 strong Mechanized Brigade, plus a number of Mirage 2000-5 fighter jets. This could be a response to Russia's moves to tackle French interests around the world such as in the Sahel, Mayotte and New Caledonia.

Macron (2023): We don't have money for pensions
Macron (2024): But we have money for war
if you don't find money for war you are doomed as a country. "Those who are reluctant to feed their own army shall feed a foreign army" such basic thing to understand, but some people like you choose to live in wonderland, there no wars are happening and everybody is smiling.
Unbelievable. This is not our war. After scarifying Ukrain the US are scarifying our country.
No magic money, well except for our US masters.
@@trankytojas You're ignoring that if you dont find money for your people to survive your country is doomed too.
War is cheap.
I think French people should send Macron to the frontlines asap. The guy wants a big European war so much
Oh believe me, we want to send him on the frontline
He can go and our soldiers stay in France
Send macron and putin and let it be over.

That's funny and pretty accurate.
Ya just like Erdogan lower interest rates when his country has the highest inflation in the world. Brilliant.
It fits situation as Zelensky used to be comic before he was elected
Exactly Putin turned Russia into a clown show.
Putin is a clown.
Remember that this all started with 'we are only sending helmets' to Ukraine..
Helmets and 46 bioweapons labs
And million atomic bombs ain’t it
“It’s only a special military operation”
I though the Russian troops on Ukranian soil was the real starting gun
I thought borders didn't matter.
When it is Ukraine, they are volunteers. When it is Russia, they are mercenaries. Yeah, totally no loaded language.
Not the same
When Iran gives Russia weapons.
Russia used them in Ukraine and Putin didnt even mention that he was using them to attack Ukraine.
In fact he denied even getting them.
In fact they kept denying it so long and now just don't talk about how they lied.
Same with how Putin denied all plans to invade Ukraine, even days before the invasion.
When Putin talks about Peace he talks about changing borders.
Normally when you talk about peace borders go back to where they were before the start of the conflict.
Look at Isreal-palestine. When we talk about peace its always under the assumption that Israel leaves Gaza, not that they kept what they control.

One is an invasion, one is for home defense

Over the course of several years of the pro-Soviet regime in Afghanistan, Russia built the country’s largest hydroelectric power station there, which supplies electricity to 100,000 homes, built the Kabul Polytechnic Institute and built rural areas that are still in demand today. And so the question is: How many power plants and institutes has France built in Africa?
All of them. Without France Africa would be using mud and sticks to build houses
Is Afghanistan in African now?
Then Russia destroyed all that and killed 1-2 million of Afghans.

. The question is not where it is, the question is what is the behavior. The behavior doesn't depend from where the land is.
. And also the question is, with what purpose you made that stupid laughter of that comment?
Hopefully when LePen becomes PM she'll reverse all of this stupidity.
I don't think she can. She won't decide foreign policy
As a Russian who is constantly interested in politics and history, I can say that Russian society does not hate the French. Of course, to strengthen the national spirit, they remember how we broke Napoleon, but there are no complaints about the French themselves.
At the same time, they also remember the two world wars when we were allies. Charles de Gaulle is probably the most popular Frenchman in Russia, including because of his policy independent from the West. In our city, performances by French playwrights are staged and there are several French schools.
Don't bother with the propaganda of your countries and let's live together
Yes.
I am also Russian and can confirm these words. As they say in Russia: это База.
France and Russia were natural allies for decades anyway :)

Big deal. French army have same similar rank to Germany.
Russia well allows french have their way.
Watch french force never take serious against Russia.
People compare this to Napoleon. Please don't insult Napoleon. Unlike Macron's France, Napoleon's had success and is still remembered and studied.
Napoleon also wanted to set France free from the banking system and the interests of the Rotschilds, that's probably why he ended up as the "bad guy" in every history book and basically the whole West was against him. Great man
They always saw Russia as some African continent, then the fascists found out in Napoleonic war and both ww1&2
Napoleon was a failure. He led hundreds of thousands of men to their deaths in the Russian winter. The French were soundly defeated by Nelson's navy at the battle of the Nile and Trafalgar. Napoleon is one of the most overrated leaders in human history.
Putin is acting more like Napoleon than Macron. He was an aggressive expansionist

I live in La Réunion and I obviously follow the geopolitics in the region. I'm stunned by the accuracy of your analysis. Just one big mistake about New Caledonia : the law that ignite current troubles is not meant to allow a new category of people to vote in the future referendums about independence, but in local elections.
"By profoundly modifying the electorate without reaching a local political consensus, the reform would reverse a key element of the 1998 Nouméa Accord, which has guaranteed civil peace for more than 25 years and made possible a process of decolonization.
Some New Caledonians fear the proposed change - which now requires ratification by a two-thirds majority of the Congress of Versailles - would dilute the share of the vote held by the Kanak people." ref. The Diplomat. More than just what is in your comment.
@@BoyBoyhaere50 The reform was drafted in first place by a local Congress. There WAS a local political consensus that a reform of the electorate on local elections was necessary, even amongst the independentist parties. But I guess our wonderful government acted with his usual amazing mix of despise and incompetence. And of course, there are all the mysterious gun providers as explained in this video. Maybe they have friends amongst the Diplomat's journalists as well (I'm joking, I don't know anything about this paper...).
Nouméa Accords stated that the electorate was "frozen" to include only Kanakys or people who lived here in 1998. All these specific rules only apply to local elections and the 3 self-determination referendums , for national matters people from NC are French like any others. Now that the referendums are behind, the idea was that any person who has been living ans paying taxes in NC for 10 years is entitled to vote. It probably "dilutes the share of the vote" of the Kanakys, since now they will only have the same voting rights than any other citizen (which includes people from all over the world like said in this video). Since most of the non-Kanakys are not independentists, I understand that those in favour of independance "fear" this reform and those who are loyalists don't, no matter which community they are from. But as I said in the beginning, everybody even the independentists agreed this unfair "frozen electorate" had to be changed.

Macron wants to play Napoleon. He should remember how it ended.
lmao he would never end like napoleon, at least napoleon was smart and knew what he was doing until some point, macron dont know shit
Fun fact, although Napoleon gets all of the credit for his accomplishments, none of it would have been possible without a refocusing of the military towards competence and rooting out nepotism, resulting in a French army full of competent officers, which leads to well trained and cared for men, which leads to good morale and victory.
Today, that is not the case.
He should also remember What Napoleons little red man told him when he warned him not to invade Russia.
Ukraine before the war was a major exporter of food for many African countries. Due to the war, this is no longer the case, so these unstable African dictatorships got destabilized and one by one have turned away from France and US and leaned towards Russia. Now, France is very loud against Russia, to not further lose its holdings in Africa. That's why Macron is so gung-ho about sending the troops into Ukraine and similar.
Little man syndrome macron

When Napoleon retreated from Russia, he suffered enormous losses. And the soldiers who were left behind had to ask the Russians for help and food. They would say, "Dear friend, help me."(Cher ami, aidez-moi) And that's why they were called "sharomyzhniki". Nowadays, in Russian, "sharomyzhhnik" means "beggar-beggar. Are we waiting for more sharomyzhniki?

horrific losses 600.000 came, only 38.000 cross the border on the way back, and out of 600,000 only 200.000 were French, the rest were soldiers from all over Europe. First EU army.

Very interesting analyses! That must have been a hell of a lot of work! great job!
Very informative & well set. Pleasure to listen. Keep it going!
If France makes a unilateral decision to strike Russia, article 5 of the NATO agreement does not bind NATO members to join France. Article 5 pertains to a NATO member being attacked, not initiating the conflict. FRANCE take a deep breath!
That's the thing with the way politicians play God with peoples lives. What is gonna happen is Russia is gonna attack French soldiers in Ukraine and that will be used to enact Article 5 because Russia attacked France
And nothing is stopping Russia from attacking France before they land hits in Russia. Macron openly declared his intention for attacks into Russia. Russia has GOOD reason to stop it.
True words!
France has its own nukes and shares no border with Russia so....
But if France strikes targets in Russia and Ruusia responds by hitting similar targets in France would article 5 be triggered?
Every french soldier stepping his foot in Ukraine must be reminded that his kids will be raised by someone else. He will never leave Ukraine soil forever.
😂😂😂 okay

We are literally seeing WW3 playing out in front of our eyes... May God be with us all
😢
Not necessarily lol. Reminds me of the first few days of the invasion into Ukraine, and how so many were screaming "WW3!". War is complicated nowadays, mainly due to the shortage of young people. Historically, the young male was the ideal soldier, young enough to be naive, but full of energy and endurance. But they're in a shortage nowadays, that's why the mobilization law in Ukraine was 27 y/o for so long, and now 25 (the average soldier currently fighting is 40+ y/o male). War would escalate a big demographic problem into a pure demographic catastrophe. Also, the values changed over time, and we can see that many Ukrainians don't take too kindly to being mobilized anymore, with so many fleeing Ukraine, bribing their way out, and questioning the new changed narrative of the 21th century - get mobilized while women can freely leave Ukraine and get a free German apartment from the German government and lots of money from it, some of them cheating on their "loved ones", their reward for their patriotism,,,, rich oligarch sons partying in expensive clubs in Europe, and you're supposed to get kidnapped on the street and tortured into cheap cannon fodder? Not anymore, time for system changes. Anyways, these reasons make countries really anxious about getting themselves involved in wars, especially ww3.

@@magnaviator I find it quite ironic, the vietnam war started with France trying to recolonize Indochina and the war in Ukraine is quite literally Russia trying to recolonize Ukraine.
@@NordicSupremacist Yes, but there is one snag that is completely invisible to Europeans. In "colonized" Ukraine, the best infrastructure and industry of the USSR was built and the Ukrainians had a powerful lobby in the government while France built about two sheds in Indochina in exchange for all the region's resources and it would also be interesting to know how many Vietnamese or other representatives of the colonies were represented in the French government 🤣

"Colonial repentance"
If the French government was really repentent and not just pretending to be repentant in front of its citizens and other countries, why:
1. Would the CFA Franc, which is controlled by France and, some critics claim is disadvantageous to the West African countries that use it, still exist.
2. Would that cause them to have a lack of understanding for African people?
you said 90% of the guys in french foreign legion are not native french, then later you say the two french soldiers captured in ukraine are fake because theyre not speaking native french?
He said 50% not 90
There are a lot of Ukrainians in the FFL, I think around 10% nowadays. If france were to send the FFL out there it would obviously be them so why would they speak a broken french to russian troops when they could speak their native langage ?

A very interesting story is how the French regiment Normandy Neman received all military equipment as a gift. In 1945, Charles De Gaulle called Stalin and complained that Great Britain, despite allied relations, was taking away French colonies in Syria and Lebanon, and France did not have combat troops to defend its colonies. After that, Stalin offered to transfer the Normandy Neman regiment to France entirely, with aircraft and all support equipment.

As a former Australian Army intelligence officer who has served in nearly all of the countries of the South Pacific that you spoke of, this has to be one of the best summaries of the geopolitical situation in our region in the past 20-30 years. Also, the mere fact that you pronounced 'Brisbane' correctly gets my vote. Well done!

The reality is that government and any insurgencies in all but the strongest of nations is shaped by outside forces. Either side of the equation lack moral legitimacy as their end goal is the same, quasi colonies
France, which Macron has completely in debt, is becoming bellicose, a question of solvency vis-à-vis its creditors. The military aspect, Macron doesn't care at all, this guy is completely irresponsible.

A lot of French légion soldiers are foreign born. They don’t speak French well. I know so. In November 2004, French legion came to the Ivory Coast during the crisis and during a routine check asked me this distorted French « ouvrez la coffre » so this is not necessarily Russian propaganda
As a failed legionaire, third of them is russophones
It is fake, legionnaires don't talk with that shity accent of somebody who is repeating french words so badly.
Your spot on as an Enlishman I still cant speak French well though foreign legionnaires were always capable of speaking it to each other while the small percentage of French could not understand our pigin French.
"They don't speak French well", is a sweeping statement.
when you are surrounded by a French-speaking society, and French-speaking in the legion is mandatory. all recruits have to try to learn it during their basic training course, and their whole time in the legion.
you live, work and breathe in French. they practice the Képi Blanc method. repetition, incentive (i.e.punishment and promotion) and immersion.
you are saying after roughly a few years when you are finally ready to enter major sustained international operations, have to try to learn France every day, are surrounded by French, can only use French in the legion, and you only learn a few words? unlikely.
I doubt you can pass to the major international operations stage if you haven't learned properly to battle communicate in French. they aren't in a hurry to send boys to war with a week of training.
protip for the russians: it is very easy to identify a legionnaire: they have their own recognizable dialect that differs from a normal french person. légionnaires don't end up speaking pure French but rather a dialect all of their own, with phrases, expressions, pronunciation and accents that might be incomprehensible to a native French person.
they will have a range of foreign accents. it’s a military unit; they will speak a lot of military slang; and they won’t speak “ educated” French . they speak so called street French. it is more direct and less flowery.
this also means that they captures french legionnaire volunteer, not native army french officer instructor.

‘We use a lot of words that come from all different languages mixed together and used as expressions that don't exist in France. E.g. We say “boule de fer” (ball of fire). French people don't use that at all, but for us, it means something's really cool, or we had a great time.”
Luciano points out that he haphazardly studied Afrikaans for ten years in South Africa and never got to a conversational level. But in the Legion, he could have a decent conversation after four months.
“The method that's tried and proven in the French Foreign Legion is they force you to speak French all the time, and that's honestly what works.”
After his basic training, Luciano became a combat medic and did multiple courses that required a good level of French.""
This is Russian propaganda. We don't send legionnaire to do some black ops job and we even less equip them with a Russian uniform with a high vis French flag sown on it.

• President Putin was visibly and deeply disappointed and disturbed, when he found out that the September 2014 Minsk Agreement, and the “Second Minsk” in march 2015, both sponsored by France and Germany, under which Ukraine essentially had to disarm, become neutral and de-nazify her society, were never meant to be adhered to.
• In December 2022, then Chancellor Angela Merkel told Die Zeit, “The 2014 Minsk agreement was an attempt to give Ukraine time; it [Ukraine] also used this time to become stronger, as you can see today.” This was a Bombshell, not just for Vladimir Putin, for most of the “innocent” - still believing - world.
You know russia has a medal for women giving birth to many children. They are in desperate need of people.
Yet never does Putin talk about moving people back to russia. You know it was Stalins forced deportation of people that created almost all these conflicts.
Armenia - Azerbaijan
Ukraine - Russia
Kirgisistan - Tadsjikistan

Japan - Russia
Kazakhstan - Russia
Finland - Russia
Poland - Russia
Even China - Russia (this doesnt get so much attention because they have to play nice together as they see a common enemy in the US, but as soon as that is done, Eastern Manchuria is up in the air again.)
Lies. You are making the mistake to believe Putins lies. He invaded Ukraine in 2014 after trying a coup. That was in durect violation of treaty obligations. Russia broke its treaty. Then invaded again 8 years later. But he never stopped attacking Unrain from 2014 and around 10,000 UAF died total then, while not openly at war. Russia just shelled them across the border. That is Putin's peace - just an excuse to rearm.
The American media is silent on this and therefore, part of the carnage.
Nonsense, they were meant to be adhered to. Of course, Russia never bothered to implement the ceasefire.

Your analysis was spot on as usual Historylegends. As usual I love hearing what you have to say. I'm glad to see you're keeping it real.
What can the French teach the Ukrainians? That's like me teaching Oleksandr Usyk how to box.
Yeah it's unlikely French instructors have a better understanding than veteran Ukrainians about the kind of training needed for this specific type of war.
But I think HistoryLegends is obviously exaggerating, there will be no direct confrontation between French and Russian soldiers.
Yeah, but you can teach him how to throw a fight.
they can probably teach the ukrainians how to retreat and surrender. They seem to be being thrown in the meatgrinder thanks to Syrsky

I strongly disagree with you if you limit your analyses on recentl military losses in Mali and Niger. When France was in Mali and Burkina Faso the goverment troops only controlled about 30% of their territory. The situation has completely changed today. I can expand that anaylis to Centrafrique. The point is that France failed in the Sahel and it did not want to acknowledge it.

6:28 Sadly you seem to forget, that they seem to forgot to invite Russia to the jubilee of Normandie-Niémen. So the Russians held their flower-laying ceremony at the burial of the pilots of the French aviation regiment in Moscow. You also chose not to translate the main call from the poster "Call the Volga 149.200" (radio frequency and call sign, using which you can surrender to the Russians on the territory of the former Ukraine, i.e. survive)...
LOL! Who the fuck want to be captured by the Russians? THE RUSSIANS?
And despite that, macron demands that russia has a cease fire during the Paris olympic games.

Salute, I served in the 187th Guards Assault Aviation Regiment “Normandie-Niemen”, which is still part of the Russian Armed Forces, at our base there is a memorial to the heroes of the Second World War, among whom there are a lot of frenchmen. It is very sad to see that only we honor the memory of our common struggle... P.S. By the way, Major Roman Filipov, who died heroically in Syria, served in the same regiment. (I hope the translation is correct)
Yes, invite the Germans to the anniversary of the landing in Normandy and not invite Russia... How many years later will we find out that the allies of the USA, Great Britain and Germany together tried to stop the USSR so that it would not capture Europe.
Every French soldier who is deployed will be equipped with a white flag.

I can say with complete confidence that during the Cold War, the cult of French culture, cinema, fashion, and a positive friendly attitude towards the people of France was implanted in the Soviet Union. Cinemas showed new French films weekly, which were visited by tens of millions of Soviet people. Many knew every word in these films, the names of every French actor. The role of the French resistance in World War II was constantly emphasized in schools and their heroism was celebrated. For decades, I have never heard from a single Russian even anything negative about France and its people. To be honest, after the war in the USSR, friendship was also promoted even with the Germans, Italians, and Japanese. All teaching in schools was aimed at suppressing any hatred based on nationality. However, I can say that Russians have an extremely negative and hateful attitude towards only to those who begin to show hostility towards them.
I can say the same about friendship with the Poles, Bulgarians, Spaniards, Greeks, Hungarians, and Czechs. Sympathy was even instilled in the American people. Any manifestation of nationalism was diligently suppressed. No nation in the world was accused of any past actions in the Soviet Union. The blame for past wars was shifted to the departed governments of these countries. All Russians, without exception, lived and live in the hope of restoring good relations and world peace without confrontation. Having lost millions of their people during the wars, the Russians wholeheartedly support only the peaceful orientation and doctrinal state of striving for general well-being, friendship and profitable trade.

If you didn't realize, Little Macron is just pissed because the Russians helped to dismantle their colonial empire in Africa in the last couple of years.
In France, the main population never really considered the Russians as enemies. On the contrary, there were some similar events in their respective histories. There were a few wars back then, but it was the political circumstances, or lobbies of the times that went beyond all that, but not a mutual hatred.
Dear friend, in Russia we are also not taught to hate the French.

Russia doesn't forgetting Normandie-Niemen unit. We invite them to parade on May 9 many times and we named streets in many cities to not forget about their heroic actions (and unlike ukrainians who renamed their streets that named in memories of soviets generals (and thats funny that they even try to erase names of the streets that in named in memories of soviet generals who actually was ukrainians) we don't renamed any street just because France in opposite side of that war.
The hell is France Smoking? They have a much smaller military and would be going up against a military that has two solid years of 5th generation warfare experience
Macron does not care, he would have France be destroyed if his European and US employers request it. He sees himself as France CEO, not président. He works for the shareholders, not the people or the nation.
