France sending soldiers to Ukraine shows NATO's desperation - Johnson
The host of the Judging Freedom channel Andrew Napolitano asked the expert to assess the rumours that some NATO countries, including France, have already sent their troops to participate in the Ukrainian conflict.

“Yes, we can say that. Not officially, but yes. It means that by sending the French Foreign Legion, they are not actually sending French Armed Forces troops, but they are French, they know how to handle artillery, and they have gone to the front lines,” Larry Johnson said.

The analyst called Macron’s decision crazy and emphasised that French soldiers will only be able to return home in coffins, if there is anything left of them.

Johnson believes that such provocative steps indicate only the desperation that reigns in NATO.

We will remind, earlier Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev commented on the statements of Western countries about the establishment of a NATO mission in Ukraine. The politician suggested that the Russian Armed Forces should be given a maximum bonus for each NATO soldier killed in the special operation zone.
