‘BIDEN’ TREACHERY: France Recalls Ambassadors From U.S.A.

Biden Democrats blowing up our alliances — while nuclear weaponizing the brutal Islamic Republic of Iran. French President Emmanuel Macron has ordered that the nation’s ambassadors to the U.S. and Australia be recalled after the two countries signed a deal that will provide Australia with nuclear-powered submarines.

“At the request of President Macron, I have decided to immediately recall our ambassadors to the United States and Australia to Paris for consultations,” Jean-Yves Le Drian, Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, said in a statement. “This extraordinary decision reflects the exceptional seriousness of the announcements made on September 15 by Australia and the United States.”

As a furious France plots its revenge for America’s treachery on its subs deal, will it take the nuclear option of quitting NATO?

On Friday, French President Emmanuel Macron ordered his ambassadors back to France after the Biden administration after Biden announced that the U.S. would sell nuclear submarines to Australia, scotching a deal France had made with the nation down under.

“At the request of the President of the Republic, I have decided to immediately recall our two ambassadors to the United States and Australia to Paris for consultations,” French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said on Friday. “This exceptional decision is justified by the exceptional gravity of the announcements made on 15 September by Australia and the United States.”

The French foreign minister added: “The cancellation of the Attack class submarine program binding Australia and France since 2016, and the announcement of a new partnership with the United States meant to launch studies on a possible future cooperation on nuclear-powered submarines, constitute unacceptable behavior between allies and partners, whose consequences directly affect the vision we have of our alliances, of our partnerships and of the importance of the Indo-Pacific for Europe.”

Is This What Global Respect Looks Like? France Recalls Ambassadors From U.S.

France announced on Friday that the country will pull its ambassadors from the U.S. and Australia after Australia ditched its existing submarine deal with France in favor of a U.S. partnership.

President Joe Biden announced on Wednesday that the U.S. struck a deal with Australia and the United Kingdom that administration officials said would provide the Land Down Under with the “technology and capability to deploy nuclear-powered submarines.” It’s a move that, even though it hurt an ally, the administration claimed was necessary to push back on China’s desire to control the South China Sea.

“We need to be able to address both the current strategic environment in the region, and how it may evolve,” Biden said. “Because the future of each of our nations and indeed the world depends on a free and open Indo-Pacific enduring and flourishing in the decades ahead.”

“It is believed to be the first time France withdraws ambassadors from the two countries,” BBC reported, referring to the United States and Australia. “French diplomats in Washington had already cancelled a gala to celebrate ties between the US and France in retaliation.”

French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said that the retaliatory decision to remove ambassadors, which was ordered by President Emmanuel Macron, comes in the wake of “unacceptable behavior between allies and partners whose consequences directly affect the vision we have of our alliances, of our partnerships and of the importance of the Indo-Pacific for Europe.” He also said it feels like a “stab in the back” after Australia canceled its roughly $40 billion deal with France for diesel-electric submarines in favor of another deal with the United States.

“We built a relationship of trust with Australia, and this trust was betrayed,” Le Drian said. “This is not done between allies.”

Le Drian also said he is “angry and bitter” and that “this brutal, unilateral and unpredictable decision reminds me a lot of what Mr. Trump used to do.”
