French President Emmanuel Macron, in statements reported by La Depeche and during discussions with France's main political parties, has declared 'no limits' to France's support for Ukraine, including the potential deployment of troops in response to Russian advances towards Kyiv or Odessa. This stance, emphasizing the absence of 'constraints or red lines', marks a significant escalation in France's involvement in the Ukraine conflict, now two years into Russia's invasion. Macron's position has elicited a 'torrent of outrage' from both domestic political figures and international counterparts, with criticisms of potentially provoking a NATO-Russia Hot War. Notably, Macron's discussions, which included presenting maps of possible Russian breakthroughs, come ahead of European elections this summer. The Kremlin and Putin allies have warned against France's increasing involvement, while Macron has faced accusations of 'preparing the public for war' from the Secretary General of the Communist Party of France. Despite the controversy, France has received support from Baltic countries and Ukraine, highlighting the complex international dynamics at play.
