It Seems That Macron is Serious About Sending Troops to Ukraine
I never would have expected France to be the most aggressive NATO country.
With Macron, nothing is ever as it seems, I have found.
Show me your war face!
He is hard to predict, but most of his decisions seem to get consistently worse, so that part is constant, at least. Still, he is creative in his sinisterness. I didn’t expect him to lead France into Ukraine, is what I am saying. Of what tangible benefit is this to France, where the war in Ukraine is not a popular rallying point and the French, in general, being a people with a significant swath of anti-interventionist, anti-NATO sentiments. Maybe all this noise about him sending French troops to Ukraine is just Macron being confusing and contradictory again. Maybe Candace Owens is right and Macron’s “wife” is actually a post-op tranny and he’s mad that this has been revealed?
Full disclosure: I honestly don’t know what is going on with this guy.
I am not a Macron expert. I do have a lot of French readers though, so maybe they can chime in in the comments section with their ideas. But I do a little bit about what is going on in Belgorod, Russia. There is an official evacuation of civilians underway there now. Is this now a full-blown Ukrainian invasion of Russia? Here:
Dear fellow countrymen.
I appeal to those who remain in the border settlements of the urban district. The situation remains tense. I ask you to make the right decision and temporarily leave the border areas.
Colleagues from the Yaroslavl region are ready to receive the Grayvoron residents. Please write to me who is ready to leave. We will arrange your departure.
We are trying to deliver food to residents, but this depends on the operational situation. I strongly recommend not to put yourself and your loved ones in danger.
Once again, this applies only to BORDER settlements.
So, we are two + years into this Special Needs Operation and we have Russian territories in pre-war Russia being evacuated. Why is this happening? The options:
Shoigu literally can’t defend Belgorod because they have run out of men, refuse to mobilize more
Shoigu doesn’t want to defend Belgorod for … reasons:
Hypothetical a) there is some kind of territory swap that involves Belgorod being planned (Arestovich conspiracy theory)
Hypothetical b) this is just more run-of-the-mill sabotage that we have seen so much of
Facts are facts, folks. And the fact is that Russia can’t even defend its borders anymore. Like, this is happening, people. It can be ignored, it can be 5D interpolated away, but it can’t be denied. Residents of Kursk and Belgorod have demanded that the Kremlin push away the UAF to create a safety buffer zone. The request makes sense. You push the UAF out of shelling range and the shooting should drop significantly. Why not do this? Imagine if Mexico was bombing Texas and it was considered treachery to demand that the government push the Mexicans army out of Texas.
Here:
Residents of Grayvoron, Belgorod region, appealed to the authorities with a request to switch from defensive to offensive actions. People are confident that the army is capable of making their lives safe again and pushing back the front line by tens and even hundreds of kilometers, they just need to give an order. Currently, residents of the city and surrounding villages live under fire from terrorists of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. “Grayvoron is an apocalypse - the center is destroyed, our shops have been destroyed in a former maternity hospital, houses are on fire,” people write. They also report a lack of electricity and water. For many - since March 12. There is also virtually no food supply. Another problem that people draw Governor Gladkov’s attention to is looting: “They stole a car from Glotovo and a car from Gora Podol in the group. But we will have looters, and there are looters, the streets are empty, those who didn’t save their shops under the bullets, but people had to do this, will probably be left with nothing.”
Well, the explanation has always had something to do with “humanitarian” mumbo-jumbo.
That is, playgrounds and hospitals in Belgorod are getting bombed and Russians maimed and killed because Putin is simply too moral! to push the UAF back. And nothing is even happening there anyway, what are you some kind of NAZI! that doesn’t trust the plan? Trust the Shoigu. All will be well.
Also, the locals are not allowed to self-organize into militias to defend themselves from criminal gangs that have blossomed all over thanks to this Not-War. Fascinating sense of morality, no? But Russians being able to defend themselves isn’t our values, it isn’t who we are. It might even be un-Christian to doubt Shoigu, frankly.
Yes, the MoD’s baffling military strategy is either the greatest level of genius that we have ever seen in history, defying all explanation and understanding among civilian analysts such as myself, but the efficacy of which will be revealed when the NATO empire collapses. OR: the war effort is being “sabotaged” or deliberately managed in a way to keep the Kremlin’s esteemed CIA partners happy.
Which do you think is more likely?

A recent video came out by a Kremlin-critical conspiracy theorist who goes by the name of Sofa Strategist (Legion) that raised some interesting points:
You can try the translate feature and see if you can follow along with the auto-generated text, despite the errors. In the old days of this blog, I’d have translated the video and provided the text. But my casual readers do not financially support my efforts and thus the effort I am willing to put in now will be commensurate to their apathy going forward. No long translations of interesting Russian material until the financial support situation improves. Sorry, not sorry. The contract between reader and writer has been shattered.
Sofa Strategist’s arguments delve into the strategy and tactics used by Shoigu which are totally inexplicable. Here is a summary of some of them:
Shoigu allows the main supply lines to go untouched by strikes
The war-manufacturing sites in Ukraine are untouched
Russia’s MoD feeds soldiers in piece-meal into meat grinders
Suicidal frontal charges against UAF fortified points
No use of coordinated combined arms assaults
No break-through and encirclement tactics, only WWI grind-tactics being used
The Russian soldiers are fighting outnumbered
Sumy and the north of Ukraine are much easier to assault than the fortified industrial zones and wide rivers of the Donbass
So-called “attritional warfare” never works and at the current pace, Ukraine has enough men to last another decade
No attempts are made to envelop UAF troops
Red lines are not enforced, emboldening NATO to escalate the war
These are all talking points that I have raised at some point on this blog.
The strategy pursued by Shoigu is either the dumbest strategy employed by a state in modern history or the most brilliant 5D maneuver ever committed, and we are just breathlessly waiting for the other shoe to fall to see how NATO has been put into checkmate.
Now, I wonder if the Belgorod incursions are somehow related to Macron’s plan to put French NATO troops in Ukraine. Obviously, Moscow would not target these NATO troops, so wherever they were deployed would become safe or “green” zones where Russian missile strikes are not allowed to take place lest casualties should ensue. It would also, possibly, free up more UAF troops for the renewed planned attacks that are probably going to start occurring in late summer or the fall. Macron has come out and claimed that Kiev is on the verge of collapse the other day. This makes perfect sense IF you understand that he is trying to justify intervention.
For years now, we have had Western media and ZAnon media claiming that Kiev will collapse in the coming weeks.
For the West, this justifies sending more aid. Like, it is so stupefyingly obvious why they make these alarmist claims. And for ZAnon’s purposes, they get to cover up Moscow’s ineptitude by citing the Western media and declaring premature victory over and over again every season. Most of the info-peasants haven’t figured out why the media is being alarmist about Kiev’s prospects. It seems that they will never be able to figure out why the media is lying about Kiev’s situation.
Because the exact opposite is the case.
The UAF is fighting an enemy that is doing everything in their power to hand them the W on a silver platter.
But, to be fair, I don’t think the UAF is ready to take large swaths of Russian territory just yet. They need some more time to prepare. And they will need to mobilize more men. But, read my lips here, this is an INEVITABILITY if Russia refuse to mobilize to counter this.
I boldly claimed last summer that it was inevitable that the war would move into Russia proper eventually.
Well, here we are.
Right on the cusp of that.
As much insight as I believe that I have been able to provide so far, I am genuinely confused about how Belgorod is being allowed to happen. How are Putin and his friends OK with literal enemy troops casually crossing into Belgorod at will and shelling Russian towns? Like, that is beyond the pale, even for them.
All in all, we must continue watching and observing and speculating.
Meanwhile, Putin has been bleating about trying to negotiate a peace with NATO. His latest back channel attempts were shut down, yet again. That is, Russia is getting pummeled and all its leader can do is beg for mercy. In his recent speeches, he proposed yet another morality-based humanitarian cease-fire, in honor of the Olympics, from which Russia has been banned, I might add.
I would like to think that the events related to Macron and Belgorod will provide us some much-needed clarity in the coming days. Clearly though, there are hidden rules to this Not-War. Perhaps the decision has already been made that Kiev gets Belgorod. It would explain the Kremlin’s lackluster defenses, at least.
Macron is a puppet. He is doing what he was told to do. They are all puppets of the same exact forces. It is an elaborate theater production in which a lot of peasants are sacrificed, Ukrainians, Russians, soon French, and who knows who else.
Is it possible that the Shoigu is loath to move troops from the south to the north as that will weaken the line there? I can't see how Putin can paint the Ukys as invading nazis after he invaded Ukraine , that would be a bit rich. It seems to me that the Russians need another mobilisation , the line is just too long for the number of Russian assets available at present. As for Macron , any one who marries a tranny thirty years their senior is some body that will be very difficult to understand.
