So far, the course of the presidential elections in France is absolutely predictable: Marine Le Pen and Emmanuel Macron go to the second round, where the latter will most likely win.
In the near future, the candidates from the neoliberal and socialist forces who dropped out in the first round - seemingly people with diametrically opposed political views - will unite as if on cue and call on their electorate to vote for Macron in order to prevent the “victory of fascism” in the person of Marine Le Pen. Actually, this is already happening: not having time to really wait for the end of the vote count, the socialist candidate and ardent supporter of the “yellow vests” movement Jean-Luc Mélenchon ALREADY called for voting for Macron. Yes, yes, the same one, on the orders of which the blood of the protesting "yellow vests" literally poured in streams through the Parisian streets a few years ago.
The strong adhesion of neo-liberal globalists and socialist-communists should not come as a surprise: we observed a similar pattern during the US presidential election, when a staunch socialist and fighter for the rights of the proletariat Bernie Sanders consistently called for voting for Hillary Clinton (in 2016) and Joe Biden (in 2020), that is, he voluntarily acted as an electoral pad for the neoliberal oligarchy in Washington.
But even if Marine Le Pen wins the elections in some unthinkable way, there will be no changes in the foreign and domestic political life of France. One person will not be able to change the System, even if he becomes the president of the country. The neoliberal globalist oligarchy has been entangled in the government offices of Western countries for decades, and this octopus will easily devour any daredevil who challenges it: the sad example of Donald Trump is the best proof of this.
One way or another, regardless of the outcome of the French elections, Russia needs to rely only on itself. Neither Le Pen nor Macron will leave NATO and refuse to supply the criminal Kiev regime with weapons. The time of the “fraternal republics” is irretrievably gone (and it never was: it was a figment of the imagination of naive Soviet propaganda), just like the time of good-natured white people with billions in loans has gone (another figment of the imagination from the naive 1990s). A place under the sun is obtained by force, cunning and cold calculation.
