Does Solidarity include not permitting France Airbases to be used in Iran bombing campaign?

The frech have a fucked up police state, being trailblazers when it comes to surveilance in the EU and somehow every second protest ends in a riot, but when it comes to their european foreign policy, they are really solid.
And of course french political discourse, just like most european political discourse, downplays far-right violence, while overstating left-wing political violence. Like when recently a far-right provocateur died after starting a fight at a left-wing protest, and somehow a leftist party in France has to answer for his death?
you go, France!
way better than the opportunist German chancellor Friedrich Merz, who dipped into Trump's critique of Spain’s military spending.
“The answer on that is quite simple. We are trying to convince Spain to catch up with the 3 percent or 3.5 percent, which we agreed on in Nato, and as the president said, it’s correct. Spain is the only one who is not willing to accept that, and we are trying to convince them that this is a part of our common security that we all have to comply with these numbers. … So, Spain has to comply with that.”
not even three weeks ago Fritze said:
Merz was speaking as the fourth anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine approaches and one year after Vance used his speech in the same hall to criticise Europeans for not taking enough control of their own defence arrangements and ignoring the demands of their electorates.
Merz responded by saying it was crucial for the continent to change its mindset and fully exploit the “enormous” military, political, economic and technological potential of a “sovereign Europe”. Germany was striving for “partnership-based leadership” in Europe but retained no “hegemonic fantasies”.
this joke of a politician (the joke is on us, he’s an ex BlackRock banker) has got his nose so far up Trump’s ass that it’s effectively sealed and diapers are no longer needed.

I think Merz isn't crawling up Trump's arse in the customary way, head first, he is going in feet first instead, so he can keep sucking him off while crawling in.
Merz is fully bought and paid for by the US.
When the fascists lose interest in Iran and turn towards Greenland, I wouldn't count on Germany fighting on the EU side.
Not a day goes by where i wish i was french - me, a german
Same. And I don‘t even like Macron or the prospect of french politics in the future. But Macron stands up and is a real european statesperson.
I do not know anything about his internal political laws. And we must be fair, france handles the fascist threat way better than germany or UK. But while i disagree with for example the french energie philosophie, i adore Macron for standing for europe and with a strong stance against russia, isreal, china and USA. And he is not an old fossile which is a very refreshing and somewhat oddly calming change.
plus i also just adore the french culture. Germans have lots to learn from the french
Fuck the piece of shit Merz and German govt that folded and surrendered to Trump as if they too are in Epstein files.
I think Sanchez is wrong, but I also think that he should be allowed to be wrong without dumb trade war threats by a supposed ally. Spain under his rule has been one of the worst in failing to comply with NATO spending targets. Personally, I'm glad that he's on his way out in the next elections.
Macron et la France ont classe.
