CHARS: F. ROUSSEL Calls for ‘a debate in Parliament’
Following the deployment of heavy tanks by the United States and Germany, Fabien Roussel wants “a debate in France in Parliament and that we deal with the issue,” an “issue of particular concern.” Regarding LCI, the PCF national secretary was skeptical about these deliveries, believing that “we have an obligation of solidarity with Ukraine”, but “we have always said that we do not want to be co-belligerent”.
“Here, everyone admits, a milestone has been passed,” he affirmed by delivering “assault weapons,” judging that this was a “serious choice of consequences in taking a step that we have previously forbidden ourselves.” “We do not want to enter, participate in or create the conditions for a third world war that is generalizing in Europe,” he said.
“I would like to question the President of the Republic (…) I would like to have this debate” in order to “take a stand” on the subject, added the MP from the north. He wants to ask Emmanuel Macron, who in his opinion should not make this decision alone, “precise questions” about the consequences of a possible French extradition, “if there are conditions, they will be used to going from the Ukrainians to Russian territory “, “we would take the risk of a conflict with Russia”.
