Macron now: maybe better distance ourselves from the USA
Is anyone even taking this guy seriously? I mean i kind of understand he will say anything at all that have a slight chance of lessening the internal contradictions in France, but please tell me not even liberals have memory this short?
To be fair, maybe he actually thought that US would back his idiotic plan, and when was told to go pound sand that's where he flipped to US is unreliable narrative.
Fair enough, it's not the first time he's made noises like this, but US not backing his hare brained scheme is likely the reason behind the latest outburst.
I'm sorta respecting Macron's drive to make Europe plough it's own furrow away from the USA.
On the other hand, I don't trust Macron and his ilk to lead Europe. I trust them barely more than I trust the USA. I don't like Macron's approach to Ukraine or his domestic policies. At least he is cool about Taiwan tho.
