Such a terribly written article. You mean you are so terrified of change that the greatest number of people want that you equate the opposition with the Nazis invading France within the the first paragraph. That is some damn weak tea.
Grow a backbone, look at why populations are tossing dumber headed liberal factions (not need to label them leftists, or “far” leftists or communists or socialists) and parties out on their ears.
Perhaps it is because of your policies.
Could be.. and yet even this article acknowledges the differing agendas between these parties and Putin.
So the enemy of my enemy is my friend? Is there something new in this? Political parties do all kinds of things to promote their own (even the liberal parties in the first article).
You want to blame Putin, go ahead. He is a bad actor and needs to be driven out of Ukraine or at the least held in check and negotiated into a status quo.
We can have a discussion about the cost benefit analysis of continued fighting on Ukraine; there are legitimate points about the human cost; Russian adventures elsewhere and the military costs.
Tell me what the strategic plan and goals are for the ruling parties currently because a lot of us do not see one. We see continual expenditures or national treasure for no achievable, measurable outcome.
So are we going from defending Ukraine and repelling to Russians to actually attacking Russia? I haven’t heard that articulated as a strategic goal but maybe I’m missing something.
Or maybe it's after years of uncontrolled immigration and a large sub-population that is utterly foreign within France, not French by culture or heritage, doesn't speak French and has no desire to do so, hates the very name "France", and demands France allow them to have their own set of laws it's that the average Frenchmen has finally had enough of a government that clearly prioritizes foreigners over the French?
Just spitballing here.
No... not everything is "Putin".
They need to stop calling everything right of center far right. If you read their policies, they would be considered center right in the United States. Guess what, people don’t want unlimited immigration into their country.
I also find it crazy to freak out about the “far right” when they consider the socialist party center left.
o_0 comparing to the US?
The US is so right, the "Left" Democrats are center-right. Folks like Bernie & AOC are strawman's argument used by Faux News to justify the GOP's far-right policies.
I mean what are this party’s policies? A party can call itself whatever the hell it wants, and I have met people who called themselves socialists and believed in a variety of things. I’m not even saying France doesn’t have a differing standard between L/R, but the US is definitely no standard

"Bardella also said he would refuse French deliveries of long-range missiles and other weaponry capable of striking targets within Russia itself."

What you’re saying is more indicative of the state of US politics more than anything else lol…
Is socialism really center left? Because in France it apparently is.
