  1. The USA should never forget that France is her oldest ally. The submarine fiasco with so much ill-will spouting out of the Australian PM was a downer and it hit Macron between the eyes. Thanks to diplomatic tightrope performance à la extraordinary by Biden, the rift was sewed up, but France was left limping away, 50 billion USD shy and a raw deal that left them with empty pockets and a Macron internationally scorched. A faux pas by Blinken that seems unbelievable in retrospect. Is it real; is it rumor, but I have read that Jill Biden and Emmanuel Macron's wife Brigitte are best friends, so I think you can see that this could do a lot or a little to mend tattered relations between your country and France. The best thing I see from our part of the world which is a few hours plane trip to Kiev is that Macron is able to be with Putin and Xi on equal footing on the international stage. Rebuked by Putin, tolerated by Xi, it doesn't matter. This is diplomatic gold for the young French chief of state. And he will share this prize with Uncle Sam. This is what is positive and which will give the USA a foot in the door so-to-speak if push comes to shove and Biden needs to cozy up to Xi or even, God forbid, Putin. Macron is a young warrior compared to the dinosaurs we are talking about, but most importantly Ian, is that Macron is doing what the USA has always wanted: he's getting the EU fired and forged into a fighting ship in its own right. A superpower EU will be a blessing for America should war break out on several fronts.
