【Russian Foreign Intelligence Service's Latest Report: France Continues to Seek Options for Direct Involvement in the Ukraine Conflict】

Moscow time, December 2, 2025, the Russian Federal Security Service wrote in a report:

France is still seeking options for direct involvement in the Ukraine conflict. This is precisely the purpose of a law enacted by the French government that allows private military companies (PMC) to provide assistance to "third countries in armed conflict situations."

In Ukraine, the presence of French PMCs, modestly referred to as reference operators in the aforementioned legislation, is seen by Russia as France's direct involvement in the war against Russia. Therefore, French PMCs will become the main legitimate targets of the Russian Armed Forces.
