Madame Guetté, I do not intend to die on the front lines, but I go there often enough to have the legitimacy to talk about it. You take the French for idiots. Putin does not want your damn conference. He refuses diplomacy and a ceasefire. Period. Yesterday was a repeat: Russia rejected an UNCONDITIONAL ceasefire! So what do you propose? For 12 years, you, your leader, and your political party, in its various forms, have refused to do what is necessary, politically and militarily, to prevent the situation we find ourselves in today. So do not come attacking the so-called "warmongers" who are unfortunate enough to actively support Ukraine and remind you that Russia refuses your diplomacy, which only gives time to the aggressor. Your strategy will lead to our common defeat. Russia only understands strength, and you are playing the role of Putin's stepping stone by proposing solutions that are not solutions. It relies on the cowardice of political formations like yours to pursue its imperialist ambitions. This behavior led to the war in Georgia, the annexation of Crimea cheered on by Mélenchon, the war in Donbas, and large-scale war in Ukraine since 2022. Your geopolitical vision is that of a three-year-old child who thinks that the bad guys and the good guys can make peace by mutually pinky-swearing. When an aggressor loots, kills, rapes, kidnaps—how can one still say 4.5 years later that it is the victim who was wearing a skirt too short? That they do not have the right to defend themselves? Have the humility to take a step back after all your misjudgments, especially the comments made by Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who considered that a total invasion of Ukraine was impossible. You constantly insult those who, for more than four years, have been alerting, raising awareness, helping, and volunteering, by calling them "warmongers," while your party opposes military aid to Ukraine. At a minimum, let Ukraine and its allies continue to put pressure on Russia. If you want a quicker end to this war, then increase that pressure on the aggressor by providing more support to Ukraine. I am a journalist. An observer right at the heart of what is happening. My job is not to fight but to inform, to alert. Colleagues among the most professional and honest have died in the field, killed by the Russian regime, while they were exercising their profession and wishing to report to the world the reality of this war, alerting about the horror exercised by Russia. They paid with their lives for this, and yet you refuse to face reality. Worse, you insult those who inform as warmongers. A bit of humility, madam. (translated)
