(en) France, UCL press release, Ukraine: no to a Third World War (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Tue, 19 Mar 2024 08:04:58 +0200


With his repeated comments on the possible sending of "ground troops" to Ukraine, Macron trivializes the idea of direct NATO-Russia military engagement. We must assert clear opposition to this catastrophic scenario. ---- Was it a bluff? A test? A bombshell? On February 26, 2024, Emmanuel Macron caused astonishment by publicly raising the possibility of sending "ground troops" to Ukraine, against the Russian army. ---- Through the game of alliances this would mean, mechanically, a direct conflict between Russia and NATO, a conflagration on the scale of the continent, and a eminent risk of nuclear war.

Faced with protests from other European heads of state and NATO, Macron immediately backpedaled by specifying that he was not talking about combat troops but about military advisors (who are already on site) or border guards...

However, he did it again on March 5, calling on kyiv's allied states "not to be cowards." Then, the same day, another step aside, this time from the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Stéphane Séjourné, who affirmed that it was a question of "failing Russia" but without "waging war" on it.

No to the continental extension of the conflict
In politics, this is what we call blowing hot and cold, instilling doubt, giving rise to debate... and ultimately trivializing the possibility of a Third World War.

Macron assumes, he says, a "strategic ambiguity". Faced with this it is impossible to remain silent; we must answer without any ambiguity: no. No to entering the war. No to the continental extension of the conflict, which would have incalculable consequences.

Russian imperialism has already failed
Ukrainian resistance will exhaust the invader with its forces alone.

kyiv will perhaps not reconquer Crimea and Donbass, now bunkered by the Russian army. But Moscow will not achieve its goals either.

The Kremlin failed to overthrow the Ukrainian regime and replace it with a puppet in its pay. He failed to "win hearts" in Ukraine, on the contrary arousing strong popular resistance even in the hitherto pro-Russian parties. He failed to make people believe in a "war of law" against the "Ukronazis" by multiplying war crimes and massive destruction. He failed to make people admire the monolithism of the Russian state, revealing on the contrary symptoms of feudal decomposition - rebellion of the Wagner Group, empowerment of its mafia-Islamist vassal Ramzan Kadyrov. He failed to silence dissent, as the crowd courageously gathered for Navalny's funeral showed.

Ukrainian resistance to invasion will not stop
Russian imperialism is today mired in an unwinnable "endless war", as were Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq for the United States, as was Afghanistan for the United States. USSR, as was Algeria or the Sahel for France. Ukrainian resistance to the invasion will not stop.

It is time for Putin to give up and concede peace. There is no question that irresponsible warmongers like Emmanuel Macron will cause an extension of the conflict.

Russian troops out of Ukraine!
No to NATO entering the war!
