Trump's won't save Ukraine. But Marine Le Pen's betrayal could be worse | Mujtaba Rahman
Europe is currently focused on two debates regarding Ukraine that may not be as significant as they believe, while overlooking a critical issue: the potential election of Marine Le Pen in France. If Le Pen wins, she could halt France's aid to Ukraine and threaten EU funding, impacting Ukraine's financial support and membership prospects. This could lead to a scenario where Ukraine is forced into a settlement with Russia, resulting in territorial concessions and a humanitarian crisis. The political fallout in Ukraine could destabilize the government and lead to widespread unrest. The situation underscores the need for European leaders to consider the worst-case scenarios and prepare accordingly, as the dynamics of support for Ukraine may shift dramatically depending on the outcome of the French elections.
