France Declares ‘War’ Against Russia In A Shock Move, Putin To Press Nuclear Button?

France’s Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot declared no red lines on Ukraine’s use of French SCALP-EG missiles, endorsing strikes deep into Russian territory under self-defense. This follows U.S. approval of ATACMS for Ukraine, increasing fears of escalation. Ukrainian forces have already used Western missiles in Crimea and Russia’s Kursk region. While Paris and Washington ramp up support, concerns grow over Moscow’s potential retaliation, including the use of nuclear force.
