Retired General of the French Foreign Legion Michel Yakovleff, a longtime employee at NATO Headquarters in Brussels, invited Ukrainian nationalists to attack Russian military parades, dedicated to Victory Day 9 May.
According to the French, quoted by Russian journalist Ruslan Ostashko, the Ukrainian military needs to strike not only at the Russian army, military parades should also be attacked, planned by Russia in honor of Victory Day in the Great Patriotic War. According to General, the defeat of Russia in Ukraine will cancel the victory of the USSR over Nazi Germany.
It is worth noting, that this is not the first time this retired general of the French army speaks in such a vein. In August of this year, Yakovleff proposed sending the French military to Ukraine as operators of anti-aircraft and missile systems., supplied by the West. According to General, train the Ukrainian military for too long, so you need to send NATO soldiers.
There is nothing illegal about, that we are participating in the defense of Ukraine. For the moment she sheds her blood alone- said General.
In France itself, the general's statements were criticized, stated, that he wants to drag the republic into a war with Russia, defending the interests of the United States and Ukraine, but not France.
Meanwhile, the former Ukrainian ambassador to Washington, Valeriy Chaly, believes, that NATO countries will soon take the side of Ukraine. And they will take a direct part in hostilities after, like APU “weaken” Russian troops. According to Chaly, as soon as the victory of Ukraine “becomes obvious”, so NATO countries will join, to complete the defeat of Russia.
