Raphaël Glucksmann, a center-left member of the European Parliament, has strongly criticized President Donald Trump's radical change of US policy on the war in Ukraine.
Occam’s Razor: It’s not that Macron is a domestic right winger who happens to be correct on international politics. It’s that your beliefs are left domestically, but you’re supporting right-wing foreign policy.
Macron is centrist at best, who is socially progressive but economically right, in which the latter is only feeding the right.
He had been advocating for EU army since Trump’s first term. I was indifferent or at best opposed to it because, like most people, nobody thought Trump is crazy enough to threaten to pull out of NATO, and there was no war in Ukraine. Then now with Trump 2.0, him pulling out from more international obligations, and the invasion of Ukraine happening at the same time, I can see why re-arming is a better course. I am still not a fan of an EU army, but I am sympathetic to the sentiment.
Also, it is not “right wing” to allow rearmament. There are right wingers who are isolationists, especially those with ties of varying degrees to Kremlin and don’t see Putin as a problem. Sure, there are even left wing isolationists.
I don’t support NATO either. But is as if there are no left leaning supporter for international military alliance lol. I don’t know what your smoking, but no thanks.

Right, so you’re a NATO supporter. As I said, you’re rightwing on foreign policy.

So you don’t think you’re rightwing, but you think there should be a massive international military alliance 🤦🏻♂️
Haha. I don’t know if you are trolling or not, but look up defensive democracy and military Keynesianism.
