    I haven’t seen indications that France is ready to join the US in attacking Iran. Having a force presence to protect European interests against whatever fallout ensues is probably a good decision though.

    At least I hope that’s what’s happening.

      If they want to protect European interests they need to kick the US the fuck out of the Gulf.
