Breaking it or saying that they no longer think that being tied tightly to the US is the best move for them?
This is a statement from the end of September
“We, some countries more than others, gave up on our strategic independence by depending too much on American weapons systems,” Macron said at a debate at the University of Vilnius in Lithuania, adding, “We cannot accept to live in a bipolar world made up of the U.S. and China.”
While Macron meets with Putin and continues a dialogue, he will call out Russia for it's election manipulation, disinformation and attacks on. Shortly after he was elected, and standing next to Putin in Versailles, he singled out Russia Today and Sputnik as disinformation outfits. He also often references the hacking of his presidential campaign. He has denounced the poisoning of Navalny, and met with Belarusian opposition leader Svetlana Tikhanovskaya in Vilnius.
Perhaps the sound of crickets in the White House concerns him.
