"The Last Chance of Europe": The media named 4 scenarios for the placement of the French Army in Ukraine (map)

The Swiss edition of NZZ modeled the presence of French troops in Ukraine. The most likely is the placement of a foreign army in Odessa. French President Emmanuel Macron wants to send a signal of strategic ambiguity with his statements about the possible departure of his troops to Ukraine. It is said that the Kremlin should not be too sure of how tired of the war. Even if Paris is unlikely to decide on such a step on its own, Macron's threats should be supported by real opportunities.

The Swiss edition of NZZ wrote about it. The article outlines the four most likely scenarios of how troops of France can be used: the publication notes that in the French capital, they do not now voice specific intentions for their military presence in Ukraine. However, from high -ranking persons the country often sounds the scenario of the very presence in Odessa.

"The first and third variants would be first and foremost strategic and have political symbolism: in the case of a Russian breakthrough of the displacement of the Ukrainian government, headed by President Vladimir Zelensky would be a priority task. ", - says the author of the material. The second option, with the placement of forces in the Zaporozhye direction, is primarily military importance.

"If the Russian army tries vigorously in the southeast, the territory north of Zaporozhye will become an operational Achilles' heel for the defense of Ukraine. The city of Dnipro is a real hub in all areas of the country," the article reads. According to the publication, in the past the Kremlin has better understood the signs of force than a compromise. Therefore, France's military intervention would probably be the last chance of Europe to prevent defeat in Ukraine and the Great War.
