“Emmanuel Macron combines diplomacy on the one hand and deterrence on the other,” says Nathalie Loiseau

While Russia has deployed tens of thousands of soldiers to the Ukrainian border in recent months and has multiplied military maneuvers, Emmanuel Macron has aligned himself with American positions. Joe Biden, the President of the United States, has thus threatened Vladimir Putin with personal sanctions in the event of a military operation. “The response will be there”, also promised the French President at a joint press conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Tuesday 25 January.

“Emmanuel Macron combines dialogue and diplomacy on the one hand, and deterrence on the other”, reacted MP Nathalie Loiseau, former Minister of European Affairs, on Wednesday January 26, in the program “Your political moment” on franceinfo. “What some candidates in the presidential election would like is an isolated France without allies”, continued the elected official of La République en Marche, criticizing Éric Zemmour’s proposal to take France out of NATO’s integrated command.
