The events of recent weeks in Africa, Ukraine, the Middle
East, and the Caucasus are like a thorn in the side for the French president.
Macron fancied himself a new Napoleon, a world-class leader, a man of stature,
and yet…
Ukraine is a failure. Lebanon, Syria — failures. The South
Caucasus — a failure. It’s even worse in Africa.
Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili, attempting to play
the role of Pashinyan’s ally, rushes to salvage Macron's image, which is
rapidly declining. Pashinyan, although posing for photos with Macron, is, in
practice, seeking to align himself with the United States.
So, this madame (who, by the way, holds a French passport)
is Macron’s last hope that France might have some influence in the Caucasus.
Will the fool manage to pull it off?
