  1. Pinned Tweet

    How Russia became a topic in French politics and what might happen after the elections - my analysis

  2. And yet too soon to herald a U-turn in French foreign policy: Prez elections not won, some statements tactical dom pol, and fp about context

  3. Quelque soit résultat, la primaire aura prouvé qu'1 débat de fond est nécessaire sur la Russie,au-delà des cris d'orfraie et du whataboutism

  4. Or when the far-right reproaches the right not to be left enough

  5. Declaration by Foreign Ministers of like-minded group supporting relaunch of conventional arms control in Europe →

  6. Passer autant de temps sur la politique étrangère que sur la place de Clovis ds les manuels d'histoire. Et ne pas parler d'Europe.

  7. FILLON: "I will not put into question our alliance with the US. But I want to be able talk to the Russians without the Americans"

  8. JUPPÉ: "I condemn the annexation of Crimea as a violation of basic int rules. Something like that not to be repeated, eg in Baltic states"

  9. FILLON: "I condemn the annexation of Crimea. The legality of the independence of Kosovo is questionable too"

  10. JUPPÉ: "Minsk must be implemented for the sanctions to be lifted" vs FILLON:"EU sanctions absurd policy. And Ukraine not implementing Minsk"

  11. Juppé: "I support the idea of a new pan-European security architecture"

  12. As many commentaries following Fillon's win focus on his stances on Russia, re-upping my piece on how RUS became a topic in French politics

  13. What is needed is a deeper and more rigorous radiography of domestic political debates, beyond pro/anti binary and sensationalist headlines

  14. Back to nature - 's army is training to track and catch drones via

  15. But the question, for both, is whether in-office policies will correspond to campaign statements. Lot of hasty conclusions on this tonight

  16. 's win confirms volatility of electorate and incapacities of political forecast. True choice or rebuff against announced duel?

  17. Important take-away of French conservatives' primaries: most populist-leaning candidate, Sarkozy, did not make it to second round

  18. (leading contender for French conservatives) and indeed rather close on - at least in terms of campaign rhetoric

  19. Queues everywhere in Paris to vote at French right primaries including in Left territories...Citizens of all convictions want to bar Sarkozy
