French president invokes Winston Churchill’s call to maintain the ‘sinews of peace’ in a prime-time interview on his stance on the conflict

The war in Ukraine is “existential for our Europe and for France”, Mr Macron said in the interview on France 2 and TF1.

“Do you think that the Poles, the Lithuanians, the Estonians, the Romanians and the Bulgarians could remain at peace for a second [in the event of a Russian victory in Ukraine]?” he asked. “If Russia wins this war, Europe’s credibility would be reduced to zero.”

    Good point. I’m not sure if the first president could’ve been not a highly placed party member, though, that’d be more like a revolution

      That’s my point exactly. No revolution ever happened, the same power structures that kept the USSR working the way it did keep Russia in the same path.
