Marine Le Pen warns NATO entry could spark World War III

newsSep 17, 202623573

On Sept. 16 Marine Le Pen, co-leader of France’s National Rally, warned that if NATO intervenes directly in Russia’s war in Ukraine it would trigger World War III, otherwise the conflict will become a "Hundred Years' War." Le Pen called the fighting a "real slaughter," saying there are "2 million victims," and argued France should stop sending financial aid to Ukraine while remaining open to providing defensive equipment and training. She said peace talks should include Germany, Poland and Türkiye and framed France’s role as creating conditions for negotiation. Le Pen has previously defended Russia's actions and received a €9 million loan from a Russian bank for her 2017 campaign, a fact cited by critics when she proposes cutting France’s financial support.

❗️NATO is preparing for two large-scale wars at the same time: Russia could strike Europe, and China could strike Taiwan, NATO Secretary General Rutte said. 🟢Xi Jinping may ask Putin to distract NATO forces by attacking Europe while China launches an operation against Taiwan.

🇫🇷❗️🇺🇦Marine Le Pen on Russia’s war in Ukraine: Either NATO enters this war and it will be 3rd World War, or we will witness 100 Years’ War. This war has already lasted longer than First World War, and nobody is talking about it. There are 2 million victims. This is a real slaughter. It’s terrible.
