Invading Panama or Greenland? Annexing Canada? “A joke! Ramblings of a man with no limits to his claims. He makes things up just to stay at the center of global attention. He’s thrilled to be at the top of the world.” These reactions, gathered from some...
TRUMP, ALGERIA, AND US… François Fillon, briefly emerging from his silence, found the right words to describe Donald Trump's election and the reactions it triggered in France: "Donald Trump," he said, "won because Americans could no longer tolerate uncontrolled...
Unlike Emmanuel Macron, who was elected on the promise of a "Revolution"—the title of his campaign book published in November 2016, whose unfathomable emptiness the French have been able to savor for the past nine years—Donald Trump never uttered the...
"A great television moment," predicted Donald Trump, an expert in the field, after his astonishing reception of his Ukrainian counterpart, Zelensky, in the Oval Office on Friday, February 28, 2025. It was more than that: it was a historic moment, this...
I have repeatedly stated—long before it even began—that the war in Ukraine could have been avoided. That it could even have been stopped as early as April 2022. That instead of preparing for the failed "great offensive" of June 2023, Ukraine and its allies...
I- La quête Pour comprendre le contenu et la portée de l’accord dit JCPOA de 2015, il est indispensable de le replacer dans l’histoire du programme nucléaire iranien, qui est bien plus ancien. Celui-ci a commencé dès 1964 avec l’implantation d’un réacteur...
"End this horrible war in 24 hours": Donald Trump’s promise seems more illusory than ever in the wake of the long telephone conversation between the Russian and American Presidents on March 19. Trump, the self-proclaimed and sole mediator of the Ukrainian...

Amidst an interminable negotiation over Ukraine, another for the release of an American-Israeli hostage held by Hamas, a third concerning Iran's nuclear programme, a fourth with Yemen's Houthis to halt their attacks on American ships (but not others),...
Entrée dans sa quatrième année, la guerre d’Ukraine se trouve tragiquement enlisée dans une triple impasse. Militaire d’abord : malgré un million de tués et de mutilés dans les deux camps, la guerre ne laisse entrevoir aucune perspective de victoire décisive,...
Now entering its fourth year, the war in Ukraine is tragically mired in a triple impasse. First, the military one: despite a million killed or maimed on both sides, the war shows no sign of delivering a decisive victory for either. The Ukrainian army,...
Donald Trump n’apprécie guère le surnom de « taco » que vient de lui attribuer la presse anglo-saxonne , à commencer par le très influent Financial Times. Ce n’est pas tant que le président américain ait une aversion pour la cuisine mexicaine — et sa...
Donald Trump does not appreciate the nickname "taco" recently bestowed upon him by the English-language press, beginning notably with the influential Financial Times. It's not that the American president harbors any particular aversion to Mexican cuisine—and...
The idea had been debated in Israel for decades—at least thirty years: to destroy all of Iran’s nuclear facilities through airstrikes. Either carried out by Israel alone or with U.S. support. For a country whose population is mostly concentrated in a...
June is lovely on the French Riviera. And on this Pentecost weekend—before a particularly packed travel schedule in the following weeks, including the G7 in Canada, a trip to Greenland, and a UN summit in New York on Palestine—Emmanuel Macron couldn’t...
Narcisse, roi du monde : ou les ambitions contrariées d’Emmanuel Macron Il fait beau sur la Côte d’Azur en juin. Et, en ce week-end de la Pentecôte, avant une série de déplacements particulièrement denses prévus les semaines suivantes — dont le G7 au...
La coïncidence, hélas, en dit long sur la paralysie française en matière d’immigration, face à un environnement européen et international qui, lui, évolue rapidement. La semaine dernière, trois évènements, dans trois pays différents, se sont produits...
The question is threefold: will the unilateral decision by the President of the French Republic—declaring a sovereign Palestinian state last Wednesday—have any chance of contributing to a future peace agreement between Israel and its Palestinian neighbour?...
Les observateurs et autres spécialistes de politique étrangère ont tous souligné l’événement : en l’espace de cinq jours, deux ambassadeurs de pays amis et alliés — les États-Unis et l’Italie — se sont vus convoqués au Quai d’Orsay en plein mois d’août,...
“Whenever the wise man points at the moon, the fool looks at the finger.” In recent days, many have been “the fools” mesmerised by Emmanuel Macron’s finger pointing to the recognition of “the State of Palestine”, which, he claims, is meant to open “an...
Last Tuesday, November 4, Hamas announced it would return the body of an Israeli soldier buried in a tunnel north of Gaza City. The 21st corpse out of 28. As part of the ceasefire agreement signed on October 9, seven bodies are still due to be handed...
In the space of just a few days, an entire world has collapsed before the stunned and panicked eyes of Europe’s leaders: the world of free American protection and of NATO itself. The 2025 National Security Strategy, personally introduced by Trump, lays...
« Il n’y a pas pour moi de scénario où les États-Unis seraient mis en situation de violer la souveraineté danoise. Cela n’existe pas. » Ainsi s’exprimait le président Emmanuel Macron, mardi 6 janvier, à l’issue du sommet de Paris de la « coalition des...
