France Defence Boost: Macron Vows To Make France ‘Feared’, Calls for MASSIVE Military Surge
French President Emmanuel Macron has announced a significant boost to France’s defense budget, citing Russia as the primary threat to national and European security.
Speaking ahead of Bastille Day, Macron warned that freedom hasn’t faced such a dire threat since 1945.
With €64 billion planned for defense by 2027, Macron called on citizens to prepare for national sacrifice.
Our reporter, Paridhi Bhanot, breaks down what this means for Europe, India, and global stability amid budget deficits, rising tensions, and a looming security crisis.
World powers are aligning against the U.S. as Trump’s aggressive tariff policies fuel backlash. At the upcoming SCO summit in China, leaders including Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Narendra Modi will present a united front against Western dominance. Trump’s penalties on India and Brazil have only pushed them closer to the anti-Western bloc, with Russia emerging as the common thread binding these nations. Experts warn that tariffs may not only damage U.S. economic ties but also accelerate the rise of a multipolar world order.

A major rift has erupted in Europe as Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni reportedly clashed with French President Emmanuel Macron over the possibility of sending Western troops to Ukraine. According to Corriere della Sera, Macron pushed for a European deployment, while Meloni sharply opposed the idea, warning that Russia’s massive army made such moves unrealistic. “How many soldiers should we send to match 1.3 million Russians?” she allegedly asked. The confrontation came just before Meloni, Macron, and other leaders joined Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House for high-stakes talks with Donald Trump following his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin. While Macron continues to float a “coalition of the willing,” Meloni favors NATO-style protections without direct deployment. Germany, Poland, Spain, Romania, and Croatia also reject sending troops, leaving Europe divided as fears grow that NATO boots on the ground could ignite World War III.

As Donald Trump pushes for a three-way peace meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, French President Emmanuel Macron is calling for Europe to be included. Macron argues that security guarantees for Ukraine also affect the entire continent. While Trump seems unlikely to welcome the idea soon, the debate highlights the high stakes for not only Ukraine but also Europe’s security. The talks could shape the trajectory of the war and the balance of power across the region.
