The French Presidential Plan Emmanuel Macron for a partial armistice in Ukraine is unrealistic. And the French leader himself pursues his own goals.
This opinion was expressed in the comment by UA.news, a military expert, a resignation colonel Oleg Starikov.
According to Starikov, Macron is trying to “sit on two chairs” today. He wants to offer something of his own, and to please Washington and London.
“I would call it all the” Macron dilemma. ” He breaks between friendship with Washington and friendship with London. Ukraine acts here as a means. What Macron has now suggested – it does not completely contradict Trump’s plan, as if it supports him, but not. The bottom line is that both France and Britain want to take part in the post -war arrangement of Ukraine, in a general post -conflict world order. That all this is not divided between Washington and Moscow, and that Kyiv, Paris and London are included in this configuration. There is a logic.
Only we seem to be a sovereign state. And we need to determine who is a strategic partner for us. Trump wants to make Ukraine an ally in an economic sense. Not in the military, but in the economic, getting big investment here. But Zelensky and European partners put a military component in the first place, ”the expert explains.
Starikov believes that Ukraine needs to decide on what is more profitable for it: economic component or military. The future depends on this choice.
“Trump wants to work with Ukraine on how the United States worked with the Federal Republic of Germany. And Paris and London want to turn us into a “Sparta”. To choose us … Macron does everything possible for ourselves, for the interests of France. This is his peace plan, ”Oleg Starikov summarized.
Earlier, we wrote that Macron’s peace plan thinks political scientist Vladimir Fesenko.
