❗️French President Emmanuel Macron reiterated the seriousness of his Monday remarks when he said he would not rule out sending Western troops into Ukraine.
Earlier this week while hosting 27 European Union nation representatives, the French president said sending troops to help counter Russia’s intensified offensive should not be “ruled out.”
“There’s no consensus today to send in an official, endorsed manner troops on the ground. But in terms of dynamics, nothing can be ruled out,” Macron said.
Macron’s Monday statement drew criticism and a warning from the Kremlin.
But Macron’s remarks were downplayed by French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu who said there are no concessions about potential military operations in Ukraine.

❗️French President Macron lands in New Caledonia in a bid to reinstate French rule.
🇫🇷But experts say the president's visit is unlikely to address the root causes of the turmoil — both political and economic.
🇳🇨Jimmy Naouna, a spokesperson from the pro-independence Front de Libération Nationale Kanak et Socialiste (FLNKS), said it was a "political situation so there needs to be a political solution".
⚡️He also called for France to withdraw their troops.
"You can't keep sending in troops just to quell the protests, because that is just going to lead to more protests," he told the ABC's Pacific Beat.

❗The West wants Georgia to open a “second front” against Russia
“Since the beginning of 2022, there has been serious interest in opening a “second front” in Georgia, which would weaken Russia’s position, but this would destroy our country. Such interest remains today,” Prime Minister Kobakhidze said, commenting on the West’s dissatisfaction with the Georgian law on foreign agents.

❗Germany promised to send Ukraine more Patriots - but almost no other allies want to follow their example 😁
Politico reports that Berlin has so far pledged three of its 11 U.S.-made Patriot batteries along with over 50 Gepard shorter-range air defense systems and air-to-air missiles. German politicians have need trying to convince the European allies for weeks to follow through on their commitments.
“There is no European leadership and no unity between the main actors,” said Nico Lange, a former chief of staff at Germany's defense ministry and now a fellow at think tank CEPA. “The sense of urgency has not increased, there’s more a sense of relief now that the Americans are delivering again.”
