[quote=Anonymous]French person here. I love Macron, and he is indeed a good leader, but you’re painting too rosy a picture here. He’s up for re-election this spring. He is playing the incumbent advantage full throttle, since his rivals don’t have access to the international stage. If he is seen by the French as moving the needle towards peace, even if ultimately Russia still invades Ukraine at some point *after* the election, it’s a huge political win at home. Of course, he also does truly see himself as a European uniter, and he was always seen as the person to replace Merkel in EU stature, and better than her when it comes to Russia, since misogynist Putin took pains to belittle Merkel. So Macron is also doing what’s expected of him… just in his own suave way :-)[/quote]
