From Libération:
The siege of Kiev is about to begin.

Things that annoy me: all these economic sanctions against
Russia. This thing can go on for years. All that the sanctions are
doing is spreading misery to the Russian population, from that
to the Ukranian one. Really?! Ursula von der Leyen is unblocking
EU 500 million for humanitarian aid. Good idea!!
Nato activation. The current Russian constitution is modelled on the
French one. Putin hysteria is stopping us from seeing what may be going on.
And not to be mean, but the notion of "all for one; one for all" is straight out
of Alexandre Dumas (père) 19th century Musketeer novels. The French
Dickens, if you will. Deterrence through mutual assured destruction seemed
clever enough in the 20th century when no one knew how to extricate us from
this il-logical situation. Needs work for the current world order!!!
