It was preceded by the condemnation of Moscow after the decision of the West to send heavy tanks to Kyiv.
Neither does Francenor are any of her partners at war against her of Russiathe French Foreign Ministry underlined today, rejecting her statements Moscow after the West’s decision to send heavy tanks in Kyiv.
The Kremlin condemned the West’s “direct involvement” in the conflict with the announced delivery of German and US tanks. German Defense Minister Analena Burbock also said: “We are waging war against Russia, not among ourselves.”
“We answer with great clarity that we are not at war with Russia and none of our partners are,” Center d’Orsay spokeswoman Anne-Claire Legendre told a news conference.
“The delivery of military equipment in the context of exercising its (Ukraine’s) legitimate defense does not mean that we are at war against a common enemy,” he clarified. “We reject these statements by the Kremlin.”
Germany has agreed to send Leopard 2 heavy tanks to Ukraine, a green light expected mainly by Norway and Poland, which then announced they would send such tanks to Kyiv.
US President Joe Biden announced for his part that the United States will provide 31 Abrams tanks to Kyiv.
Many Western governments have insisted on the defensive nature of these tanks, as they claim, in order to defuse Moscow’s anger.
These military aid deliveries are part of “the commitment of countries around the world, led by the United States, to help Ukraine defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity (…). This is not an aggressive threat against Russia,” said Joe Biden.
