France is a major member of nato's military bloc and its position in NATO can be said to be pivotal. Therefore, whether France will withdraw from NATO will not only have a profound impact on NATO, but also make a huge change in France's security strategy. So the question of whether France will withdraw from NATO has been a controversial topic for the country.
France's withdrawal from NATO is not only said by president Macron of the country, but also the main topic used by various princes to attract attention and grab votes during the French election. According to the "Russia Today" TV website, the leader of The French left-wing political party and presidential candidate Mélang-sur-Merlin said in a recent interview with the media that if France leaves NATO, it will not be dragged into the Cold War logic maintained by strategic competitors such as the United States and Russia. Mélancheon pointed out that France should participate in efforts to ease the international situation, rather than being encouraged by the United States to be led by Washington in the Cold War against Russia and other powers. Therefore, complete separation from the NATO military bloc is extremely beneficial to France, because it means that France will not become part of the "military adventurism" of the United States.
In fact, this is not the first time that Méroncheon has called on France to leave NATO. Prior to this, the United States took advantage of the opportunity of forming a new alliance to steal tens of billions of dollars of French submarine orders, resulting in high tensions between the United States and France. Mélang-sur-mer has publicly called for Paris to leave NATO and no longer be reduced to cannon fodder for the United States to provoke confrontation between major powers.
Mellon-hsiung's words seem to those who love peace in the world and resist unilateral hegemonism, which are pertinent and rational. But in the eyes of some European politicians who still seem to cling to the Cold War mentality, his remarks are extreme left-wing ideas and simply do not conform to the so-called "values" of the West.
However, objectively speaking, although some of Mei Langxiong's remarks are very extreme, they are actually not rough. The reason is simple: at present, in order to maintain its hegemonic position, the United States does not hesitate to launch an all-out provocation against Russia. As a consequence, the situation in Europe has become volatile as a result of the Crisis in Ukraine. At this time, whether it is the West or Russia, as long as either side is slightly impulsive, a great power war may be unavoidable.
According to Méron-silvestre, if France leaves NATO and gets rid of the U.S. dominance, it will not need to face the risk of a major power conflict in order to please the United States, let alone have to assume some kind of military security obligation, and eventually be caught up in this conflict crisis vortex that may bring disaster to France. However, this is only Méronccion's personal opinion and does not represent France's current or future military and diplomatic strategy.
Mélang-sham's party is not the largest in France, and in terms of his current rating of support, it is unlikely that he will win next year's general election. Taking a step back, even if Méroncheon is lucky enough to win the election and become the next President of France, it does not mean that France will break with NATO. The reason is simple, France's political ecology does not allow any president to withdraw France from NATO.
Macron has previously made "NATO brain death" remarks, but that is only a statement made by the United States in the face of Trump's great pain to Europe. Still, Macron's remarks have sparked widespread criticism in Europe. Therefore, even after the French submarine order was snatched away by the United States, Macron, who has learned from the past, will no longer easily talk about the issue of withdrawing from NATO.
This is enough to illustrate the fact that no matter how hard France tries to achieve European defense integration and get rid of its security dependence on the United States, it has proved that as the United States successfully uses the Ukraine issue to provoke a new round of European conflict crisis, the dependence of European countries, including France, on the United States in terms of security, has not been weakened but further strengthened.
Under such circumstances, Méroncheon's call for France to withdraw from NATO is actually just lip service. After all, even the current president Macron can not and does not have the courage to let France break with NATO, and Mélang-hsiung, a presidential candidate who has little hope of winning the election, wants France to withdraw from NATO, which is tantamount to a fool's dream.
