The Non-Pretending Reality of the Matter
… however, the commanders tell the government what to do. Those same commanders also require and demand generous financing, which is ultimately why Zelenskyy keeps asking for more money to pay their indulgency fees.No. Never has. The datapoint to prove it was finally evidenced when Michael Fedorov resigned as Ukraine Minister of Defense. Fedorov noted neither he nor Zelenskyy controlled the battlefield commanders. The Ukraine military operates independently, much like a mercenary unit; however, the commanders tell the government what to do. Those same commanders also require and demand generous financing, which is ultimately why Zelenskyy keeps asking for more money to pay their indulgency fees. Ukraine military operates depending on who is paying them in cash, crypto or bullion. The leadership have very nice lifestyles outside Ukraine. That's the non-pretending reality of the matter, and every U.S-EU-NATO politician is very well aware of it.

No Business Was Spared
These images must make their way around the world. Our neighbors must know.Ces images doivent faire le tour du monde. Nos voisins doivent savoir. Lyon l’une des plus grandes villes de France le 17 octobre est l’une des villes les plus touchées. A Lyon, aucun commerce n’a été épargné, oui aucun commerce n’a aucun épargné vous avez bien lu. Toutes les boutiques vidées, vitrines éventrées, stocks dévalisés de la rue de la République aux Jacobins, jusqu’à Confluence. L’office de tourisme de Bellecour pillé puis incendié. Les pillages ont continué toute la nuit et même dimanche matin. Les commerçants avaient barricadé. Ça n’a pas suffi. Des magasins de vêtements, de sport, de luxe, des enseignes grand public, tout y est passé. Le préjudice est tel qu’il faudra des semaines pour le chiffrer. Certains ne rouvriront pas. La France est dans le ravin. Macron en est l’un des principaux responsables. Le pays est hors de contrôle. Le monde doit le savoir.

Lyon, one of France's largest cities, on October 17, is one of the hardest-hit cities.
In Lyon, no business was spared—yes, no business was spared, you read that right. All the shops emptied, storefronts smashed, stocks looted from Rue de la République to the Jacobins, all the way to Confluence.
The Bellecour tourist office looted and then set on fire.
The looting continued all night and even into Sunday morning.
The shopkeepers had barricaded their stores. It wasn't enough. Clothing stores, sports shops, luxury boutiques, major retail chains—everything was hit.
The damage is so extensive that it'll take weeks to tally it up. Some won't reopen.
France is in the abyss. Macron is one of the main ones responsible. The country is out of control.
The world must know.

Pallets of Bottles
You doubt whether these riots in France are well coordinated? Then you can explain to me why pallets of bottles magically appear on the street? October 17th was on the agenda for weeks, and not to protest the quality of education.Mostly peaceful and totally organic student protests by people who are very clearly not students. This is the democrats vision for America as well. Don’t France our America.

During National Address to France President Macron Says He “Doesn’t Know What Is Going On” but He’s Sure President Trump Is to Blame
Following days of riots, violence, arson, buildings destroyed and mass looting, French President Emmanuel Macron delivered a national address to the people of France. Remarkably, in the beginning of his remarks Macron says no one in the French government understands what is happening, but he is demanding an investigation.
A few paragraphs into the prepared transcript and Macron says high fuel prices driven by President Trump’s war against Iran, “a war we had nothing to do with,” is certainly the cause of the protests that have mysteriously turned violent for some unknown reason. Macron further notes those protests are righteous, justified and he agrees with them.
This is quite a remarkable address.
The Conservative Treehouse
My dear fellow citizens,I am addressing you this evening at a moment of extreme gravity, after what we experienced yesterday in many cities across France, both in mainland France and in our overseas territories.
Yesterday, Saturday 17 October, factious elements from ultra-left groups, joined by numerous delinquents, engaged in unbridled violence in our cities. Shops were looted, public buildings, stores and town halls were attacked, and some were destroyed. Several hundred police officers and gendarmes were injured.
Looking at these images, we all wondered: what is going through their minds? How can French people do this to France? Why burn down the town hall in Limoges, the tourist office in Lyon, invade the town hall in Marseille, or attack the prefect’s residence in Bordeaux? How can they come to this? Nothing justifies it, nothing explains it, nothing excuses it.
We all feel anger and shame this evening. Seeing the streets of our cities vandalised in this way is unbearable. On your behalf, I express the nation’s support for our law enforcement and internal security forces. They held firm and did their best. Our thoughts go out to the many injured and their families. I also express our support for all our mayors and elected officials. I want to express our support for the many shopkeepers, artisans and economic actors who have suffered the consequences of this violence and who are now in distress. Some defended their shops and windows themselves against the delinquents. I want to tell them that they will not be left alone to face these difficulties. The government will provide them with answers. Starting tomorrow, the Prime Minister will chair a crisis unit to mobilise the fastest possible aid and support those who are going through these very difficult times.
We must be clear-sighted. Yesterday, despite their professionalism, our law enforcement forces had to endure unprecedented violence in many cities, repeatedly. I have asked the government to draw every lesson in terms of intelligence and anticipation so that this cannot happen again. I expect clear answers, and full transparency will be provided. That is what I have asked of the Minister of the Interior. The investigations will be conducted with all the necessary diligence as quickly as possible, and the greatest firmness has been requested of the prosecutors by the Minister of Justice. Judicial follow-up must be exemplary. Our judges deliver justice in your name and they know what you expect. Every time offences are committed, they must give rise to appropriate judicial proceedings. Those who destroyed must pay. Those who looted must repay. Those who sought to bring down the Republic will have to answer for it.
We must also look lucidly at what is being expressed in the country. Yesterday, several hundred thousand of our fellow citizens demonstrated with the desire to voice legitimate demands. We must never confuse the latter with those who destroyed, smashed and looted. These demonstrators expressed concern about the cost of living and the price of fuel, which have their source in the conflict launched in the Persian Gulf, in which France has not taken part and of which we are suffering the consequences. I fully understand their concern. It is also being expressed in several other European capitals. In this regard, I have taken several initiatives at the international level to secure our fuel and gas supplies and to act on the energy markets. I will continue these actions starting tomorrow morning by travelling to the Gulf countries to secure our supplies. The Prime Minister and the government have also taken decisions in conjunction with fuel distributors so that these efforts are concretely reflected in prices. The government is doing its utmost to address this essential issue of purchasing power. I know that the French expect concrete results and we will continue to act.
For several weeks now, our youth have also been expressing a deep anxiety in secondary schools and universities. An anxiety about the future, about living and study conditions, about the ability to find one’s way, to project oneself, to find one’s place in society. The idea that there is somehow no desirable future. I understand our high-school students and university students. They have been at the heart of my political commitment for more than ten years. Their voice must be heard, without preconceptions and without minimising the difficulties. Work has already been undertaken by the government. The Minister of National Education has mobilised and set up a platform that has collected more than 100,000 contributions, in addition to the meetings held at the level of the academies and secondary schools. This will enable us to build appropriate responses with our youth.
Our responsibility is therefore twofold: to hear the anger and act on its causes, and to firmly uphold republican order. We must neither confuse legitimate demands with violence, nor allow violence to prevent those demands from being heard. That is why I want to set out a clear method this evening. First, in the current context, the prefects will take decisions in conjunction with the mayors to protect our cities, our public buildings and our shops, including by going so far as to ban certain gatherings when necessary and by taking every necessary action. Second, I call on all political parties, professional organisations and trade unions to condemn all violence without ambiguity and to call for calm. Everyone must take their responsibilities. The country needs order and appeasement, not escalation. The Prime Minister will bring these organisations together in the coming days in order to obtain clear and public positions.Third, we cannot ask our youth to believe in the future without giving them the opportunity to help build the responses and to be around the table. Yes, we need to sit down around the table and build solutions together. Pupils, students, teachers, representatives of employers’ and trade-union organisations, local authorities and parliamentarians will work with the government starting this week on concrete proposals. The Prime Minister will convene them in the coming days for this purpose.I want to be very clear here: with regard to the rioters and all those who engage in violence, we will be uncompromising. Listening and dialogue do not mean weakness or impunity. My dear fellow citizens, we are six months away from our presidential election. Six months. And so all those who today tell you that the urgent need is to take to the streets, to demonstrate, to create disorder, have only one aim: to damage the Republic and steal the debate. The choices for the future that you will have, that we will have to make in six months, are essential. France is a great democratic force. It deserves these debates. They must take place in public meetings. They must take place with the parties, and not in the street through violence. They must take place in the newspapers, on television sets, in peaceful gatherings where people speak and explain themselves with respect — never in disorder and destruction. Our country deserves a fine presidential election in six months. It is also being decided now, through a spirit of responsibility.
Yes to dialogue, yes to concrete short-term responses and to the preparation of future decisions. But always no to violence of any kind. We need unity, calm and respect.
Long live the Republic and long live France.

Alexandre Bompard, CEO of Carrefour Group
This morning, I am heading to the side of the directors of our looted stores to express to them all of Carrefour's solidarity.Je me rends ce matin aux côtés des directeurs de nos magasins pillés pour leur exprimer toute la solidarité du groupe Carrefour. Au total, 50 magasins frappés dont 19 magasins de proximité et supermarchés Carrefour pillés et saccagés partout en France, ici à Paris, mais aussi à Rennes, Lille, Bordeaux et ailleurs. Je pense également aux 1500 magasins de toutes les autres enseignes et à tous les commerçants qui ont subi les mêmes violences inacceptables. Il y a de la tristesse mais aussi de la colère face à ce que nos rues nous offrent ce matin : des commerces dévastés, des salariés profondément choqués, des clients consternés. Et je veux saluer le courage et l’engagement de nos équipes, déjà à pied d’œuvre ce matin pour remettre les magasins en état et retrouver au plus vite leurs clients. Pour les magasins les plus durement touchés, les travaux seront malheureusement longs et certains seront durablement fermés. Derrière ces destructions, il y a aussi des conséquences humaines et économiques considérables. Des dizaines de salariés de nos partenaires franchisés seront contraints au chômage partiel. La facture des travaux se comptera en plus d’une dizaine de millions d’euros et nos commerçants ont besoin d’une accélération des procédures d’indemnisation comme dans le cas des catastrophes naturelles. Rien ne peut justifier de telles violences. Ceux qui s’en prennent ainsi à l’outil de travail d’entrepreneurs courageux et de leurs équipes doivent faire l’objet d’une réponse sans complaisance. La République doit protéger ses commerçants !

In total, 50 stores hit, including 19 Carrefour convenience stores and supermarkets looted and ransacked across France, here in Paris, but also in Rennes, Lille, Bordeaux, and elsewhere. I also think of the 1,500 stores of all other brands and all the shopkeepers who have suffered the same unacceptable violence.
There is sadness but also anger in the face of what our streets are offering us this morning: devastated businesses, deeply shocked employees, dismayed customers.
And I want to salute the courage and commitment of our teams, already at work this morning to restore the stores and reconnect with their customers as quickly as possible. For the hardest-hit stores, the repairs will unfortunately be lengthy, and some will remain permanently closed.
Behind these destructions, there are also considerable human and economic consequences. Dozens of employees from our franchise partners will be forced into partial unemployment. The cost of the repairs will amount to more than ten million euros, and our shopkeepers need an acceleration of compensation procedures, as in the case of natural disasters.
Nothing can justify such violence. Those who attack the work tools of courageous entrepreneurs and their teams in this way must face an uncompromising response.
The Republic must protect its shopkeepers!
