The cradle of the Great Bourgeois Revolution, the source of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the country whose national anthem calls for outbreak against tyranny, the country which during its whole history served as an example of a strong sovereign united country with high civilizational values, the country which managed to convince the whole world of the importance of rule of law and human dignity – such a great country is on the verge of huge disgrace!
Following the statements of the President of France with vehement denunciation of annexation of Crimea and the statements supporting united independent democratic Ukraine, continuation of French-Russian military cooperation looks especially cynical.
We call upon French government to urgently reconsider agreements with the Russian Federation on sale of Mistral warships and transfer of high military technology into hands of the biggest aggressor in Europe!
Russia impudently violated international law, driving Europe to the brink of geopolitical disaster and complete fiasco of international security system. Thousands of Ukrainian citizens die in unprecedented confrontation between militarist Russian empire and democratic independent European state in the very heart of Europe.
We qualify any cooperation with Russian aggressor as collaborationism similar to the one of Vichy regime with Hitler.
In 1939 Europe faced the choice when it could stop Hitler. According to Winston Churchill, «Britain had to choose between war and dishonour. They chose dishonour. They will have war».
Socialist President of France is to be reminded of Marx’s saying: «There is no crime at which capital will scruple for the sake of 300% profit».
We call upon friendly French nation not to repeat mistakes of the past. France does not have any moral obligations to agreements with the country violating Europe with disgrace and laughing in everyone’s face.
Ukraine is already paying high price of human lives for the sake of European values. What is the price Europe is ready to pay to preserve values it propagates worldwide?
