Regardless of what Russian President Vladimir Putin says about repercussions for any Western militaries that cross his “red lines,” French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot says that France is committed to waging war on Russia regardless.

In a recent interview with BBC, Barrot argued that no Western country, France included, should impose any “red lines” of their own in supporting Ukraine. Whatever Volodymyr Zelensky wants he should get, Barrot basically said.

If Ukraine wants to use French long-range missiles to target Russian territory, Barrot believes that it should do so in “self-defense.” Barrot did not clarify whether or not French weapons have already been used in Ukraine’s war on Russia.

“The principle has been set,” Barrot said. “Our messages to President Zelensky have been well received.”

Macron says France is ready to fire missiles on Russia

To be sure that the world got the message, French President Emmanuel Macron affirmed what Barrot said, adding that France is ready to start firing missiles at Russia regardless of what Putin says or thinks about it.

There should be no limitations whatsoever on Kiev’s ability to target Russian territory as it sees fit, Barrot and Macron both believe.

“We will support Ukraine as intensely and as long as necessary. Why? Because it is our security that is at stake,” Macron admitted about the fact that Ukraine is just a proxy state of NATO and the West.

“Each time the Russian army progresses by one square kilometer, the threat gets one square kilometer closer to Europe.”

In order to keep Russia at bay, Barrot believes that even more money should be thrown at increasing defense spending. All Western nations, he says, should extort even more money out of taxpayers to keep the proxy war going and thus keep the deep state in power.

“Of course, we will have to spend more if we want to do more,” Barrot said matter-of-factly. “We have to face these new challenges.”

Ukraine aspires to join NATO, after all. Zelensky has repeatedly stated that he wants his regime to be a part of the Western good ol’ boys club no matter what, and Barrot is personally inviting him to join.

“We are open to extending an invitation, and so in our discussions with friends and allies, and friends and allies of Ukraine, we are working to get them to closer to our positions,” Barrot said.

We know that the November 20 missile strike on Russia’s Kursk region struck a command post in the village of Maryino, killing 18 Russian servicemen and injuring 33 others, including three personnel from North Korea. That strike was carried out using British-French Storm Shadow missiles, as well as a Ukrainian MiG-29 equipped with an American GBU bomb.

Those injured in the attack include officers from Russia’s Southern and Eastern Military Districts. Lt. Gen. Solodchuk was reportedly present on-site as well.

There was also a secondary explosion that occurred later in the evening that same day, injuring 13 additional servicemen.

A government source in the United Kingdom told BBC that right now is a “crunch point” for the war as the world heads into winter and as President-elect Donald Trump readies for a second term.

“I’d turn up with a trebling of European money for Ukraine and I’d go after Russian assets,” one source said about how Europe needs to get bilked for more cash to funnel into Zelensky’s coffers.

“We need to work out what is the war chest that Ukraine needs to find to fight through 2025 and into 2026 – it’s hard to ask the U.S. taxpayer to foot the bill.”
