The Deep State seems intent to get into direct conflict with Russia. France is doing their part poking the bear to bring about WWIII. WWIII is perhaps the only thing at this point that might help Biden in November against Trump
The Kremlin has suggested that Russia is prepared to strike French troops if they are sent to Ukraine to help train Kyiv’s soldiers. This statement follows a comment by Ukraine’s top commander, Oleksandr Syrskyi, who announced last week that French trainers would soon arrive in Ukraine. Both Paris and Kyiv have downplayed this statement, but the Kremlin’s stance remains firm.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov asserted, “No instructor involved in training the Ukrainian military has immunity. It doesn’t matter whether they’re French or not.” This underscores Russia’s readiness to target any foreign military personnel involved in training Ukrainian forces, regardless of their nationality.
French President Emmanuel Macron previously described the situation in Ukraine as “dynamic” in February, stating that no potential developments could be ruled out. This indicates a recognition of the unpredictable nature of the conflict and the ongoing international involvement.
Amid these tensions, Britain is making efforts to support Ukraine through an international coalition by sending 1,000 first-person view drones. The appeal, valued at £300,000, aims to procure up to 15 batches of 20 “first-person view racing quadcopter style drones.” These drones are expected to enhance Ukraine’s capabilities in the conflict.

In a related development, Russian sources claimed that Ukraine has fired American weapons at Belgorod for the first time. This follows Washington’s decision to lift a ban on Kyiv using American weapons inside Russia. According to Russia’s defense ministry and military bloggers, the Ukrainians used the M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, or HIMARS, to target the bordering Belgorod city. This marks a significant escalation in the conflict, as it involves the use of advanced American military technology on Russian soil.
The situation remains highly volatile, with the potential for further escalation as international involvement deepens. The Kremlin’s warning about targeting French trainers reflects the broader geopolitical stakes and the heightened risks of direct confrontation between Russia and Western nations.
The conflict in Ukraine has consistently drawn in international players, each contributing in various capacities to support Ukraine’s defense against Russian aggression. The introduction of first-person view drones by Britain is just one example of how international aid is being adapted to meet the evolving needs of the Ukrainian military. These drones are likely intended to provide enhanced surveillance and tactical advantages on the battlefield.

At the same time, the reported use of HIMARS by Ukraine against Belgorod signifies a new phase in the conflict, showcasing Ukraine’s ability to strike within Russian territory. This development is likely to provoke a strong response from Russia and could lead to further international ramifications. The lifting of the ban by Washington indicates a shift in policy, potentially signaling a more aggressive stance in supporting Ukraine’s military efforts.
