He told about it in a new interview with the portal Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. According to the politician, France, together with Germany, tried to make the war in the end not start, but on February 24, 2022 it became clear - nothing happened. One of the reasons for this was that Vladimir Putin did not believe in a powerful response from the event, including sanction pressure.
The Kremlin's head was convinced that differences within the European Union would lead to a "soft reaction" to the war. In particular, it was due to the lack of a proper response from the event in 2014, when Russia occupied the Crimean peninsula. "To prevent war, it is necessary to establish a balance of power. It is necessary to clearly understand that the invasion will be a very strong reaction. Putin did not believe it," says François Holland in an interview.
François Holland continued that Germany hoped to keep Russian aggression due to the fact that "the supplier usually behaves correctly, otherwise he loses his client", referring to energy resources. But, as the politician said further, Putin will rather give up the client than the territory. We will remind, on March 19, Bloomberg reported that India and UAE companies help the Russian Federation to circumstance.
