French think tank has given bad advice to the French government! A French think tank said that France should strengthen its military deployment around the Taiwan Strait! On September 26, according to foreign media reports, the French think tank "Institute for International and Strategic Relations" (IRIS) released a report stating that considering the Taiwan Strait is related to the global supply chain and European interests, France should anticipate potential chaos if tensions escalate, and deploy measures in diplomacy, economy, and military.
The think tank suggested that France could propose a resolution to the United Nations Security Council, calling for de-escalation of the situation and respect for the status quo in the Taiwan Strait, and establish a temporary voluntary alliance to pressure China. By strengthening regional military deployments, France can cooperate with the U.S. Navy, European and Asian navies in joint operations patrols, demonstrating maritime deterrence power. It is obviously very clear to us that, in the current situation of the Taiwan Strait, the French think tank suggests that France should apply pressure on us through various means, even military means, on the Taiwan issue.
The French think tank believes this is an effective way to ensure French interests. However, in our view, the French think tank is not so much giving advice as provoking trouble. If France really cooperates with the United States to increase military deployments around the Taiwan Strait, will the situation in the Taiwan Strait become more peaceful or more tense? Does the French think tank have the most basic judgment? Saying words about stability and peace, but actually wanting to pour oil on the fire, is this not a foolish idea that goes against the direction?
Is it wise for the French think tank to interfere in our internal affairs?
Moreover, to be honest, France's domestic and foreign affairs are in a difficult situation. Internally, the French government has had multiple cabinet collapses, and the contradiction between France's fiscal revenue and expenditure is almost unsolvable. Externally, in the Ukraine-Russia issue, Europe, represented by France, in fact cannot dominate the situation. If in such a situation, France is still provoking trouble around us, is the French think tank overestimating its own capabilities? If we send warships to freely sail in Europe, would France feel comfortable? The French think tank should understand that China is not the Qing Dynasty, and the era of gunboat diplomacy by powers against us has passed forever.
