While it remains a matter of curiosity whether France will enter into war against Iran, President Emmanuel Macron made a statement. Speaking live, Macron said, "We will move to defensive actions. We will keep our word to our allies in the Gulf, our reliable friends. I have ordered the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier and escort groups to urgently move to the Mediterranean. Long live France."
The conflicts that began with the attacks of the US-Israel and the retaliations from Iran have turned into a global war in the Middle East. While Iran responds to the attacks by targeting US bases in the Gulf countries, there are concerns about the war expanding with the involvement of other countries.
MACRON: WE WILL KEEP OUR WORD TO OUR RELIABLE FRIENDS IN THE REGION
French President Emmanuel Macron made a statement that would raise these concerns. Speaking live, Macron stated that he has commitments to allies in the region and that they will therefore move to defensive actions.
Macron said: "We will move to defensive actions. We will keep our word to our reliable friends. We will support our allies in the region, in the Gulf."
"FIGHTER JETS DEPLOYED"
"I have ordered the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle and the escort groups to urgently move to the Mediterranean." Macron, who stated that the French frigate has been deployed off the coast of Cyprus, said, "Rafale fighter jets, air defense systems, and airborne radars have been deployed."
"HEZBOLLAH MUST STOP ALL ATTACKS"
Macron also addressed Israel, which is attacking Lebanon, and Hezbollah. Macron stated, "Hezbollah must absolutely stop all its attacks and I call on Israel to respect the territory and integrity of Lebanon. Long live France."
