⚡️🇫🇷 President Macron:

“The paradox would be that, overcome with panic, we believe we are just America’s followers. The question Europeans need to answer… is it in our interest to accelerate a crisis on Taiwan? No...

If the tensions between the two superpowers heat up… we won’t have the time nor the resources to finance our strategic autonomy and we will become vassals."

“The great risk" Europe faces is that it “gets caught up in crises that are not ours, which prevents it from building its strategic autonomy."

Per Politico, he also suggested Europe should reduce its dependence on the “extraterritoriality of the U.S. dollar."

Pansophist, I told you France will be the first to rebel against America.

⚡️ CNN has reviewed 53 leaked documents, all of which appear to have been produced between mid-February and early March.

One document reveals that the 🇺🇸 US has been spying on Zelensky. That is unsurprising, said the source close to Zelensky, but 🇺🇦 Ukrainian officials are deeply frustrated about the leak.

The US intelligence report, which is sourced to signals intelligence, says that Zelensky in late February “suggested striking 🇷🇺 Russian deployment locations in Russia’s Rostov Oblast” using unmanned aerial vehicles, since Ukraine does not have long-range weapons capable of reaching that far.
