« DEHORS ! » : Des manifestants français prennent pour cible les troupes ukrainiennes lors du déf...

« Ukraine, entrez chez nous ! Ce n'est pas le temps, entrez ! » En Montparnasse, carrying French flags and banners, reading «FREXIT » and down with the European Union, the Patriots.

The French national holiday is for the French army to parade. It is not primarily for the armies of European countries or a coalition of the willing. There is no reason for Ursula von der Leyen to be in the stands or Marc Brute for NATO.

And then obviously Ukraine with Zelensky present, along with elements of the Ukrainian army that we know are linked to very extremist or even neo-Nazi elements. All of this is dishonorable for France, for peace, and for the French soldiers who fought against Nazism. And above all, it has nothing to do with the French national holiday, nothing at all.

Philippot, leader of Les Patriots, called the demonstration a real national parade that would be 100% French and free, contrasting it with the official celebrations on the Champs-Élysées. He criticized the participation of Ukrainian troops and the presence of European and NATO leaders, arguing that France's National Day should honor the country's own armed forces. Demonstrators echoed his criticism, chanting «Soldiers of Ukraine go home» and «Soldiers of NATO go home».

The march followed an official parade, centered on European defense and support for Ukraine. Ukrainian troops joined the Bastille Day procession for the first time, with Zelensky, von der Leyen, and other European leaders attending the celebrations. Speaking just before in unison with Jean Moulin and the General, we saw Macron this morning decked out with von der Leyen and Zelensky, turning the Champs-Élysées into a battlefield against Russia.

We heard him yesterday at the Hotel de Bruyelles forces calling between the lines for a European army and mentioning the idea that he was ready, I quote, to shed blood for law and freedom. The French national holiday is for the French army to parade. It is not primarily for the armies of European countries or a coalition of the willing.

There is no reason for Ursula von der Leyen to be in the stands or Mark Rutte for NATO, and then obviously Ukraine with Zelensky present along with elements of the Ukrainian army that we know are linked to very extremist or even neo-Nazi elements. All of this is dishonourable for France, for peace, for the French soldiers who fought against Nazism, and above all, it has nothing to do with the French national holiday, nothing at all. Macron's ten years have been a disaster, an absolute disaster in every respect, but we hope this is his last parade because it feels like he is clinging on, that he does not really want to leave.

His only solution to stay in power would be to start a war, which we obviously do not want, but there it is. As for the rest, we will forget him very quickly. Macron will be thrown into the dustbin of history.

Remember that it only takes one month to change all of humanity. That is what we are demonstrating today, and we are not afraid. We are not afraid, and we will never be afraid, especially when so-called Nazis imagine marching in our place.

We are laughing because we know that history is on our side, and it is a spiritual history. It is a history they cannot understand, that they will never understand, and that is why they will be defeated. The fact that Emmanuel Macron invited Zelensky is completely inappropriate.

It is July 14th, the French national holiday. France should not be involved in this conflict. Why?

Because in fact there is no direct historical relationship between Ukraine and France. And the current government in Ukraine is very questionable. Macron has a warmongering position.

One gets the impression that he is preparing the French population to potentially get involved in a war through this July 14th demonstrations. Once again, completely out of place in relation to what this holiday should be. Ukraine will return to you.

Ukraine will return to you. Ukraine will return to you. News never stops.

The world keeps turning, and every turn tells a story. Wars, elections, geopolitics, Davids vs Goliaths. While everyone is celebrating the US-China trade tour, Trump has been quietly doing something else across Asia.

News were once home to the ancient Silk Road connecting East and West. But who's connecting the dots? Who's decoding the global storm?
