France's Support for Ukraine: From Training Pilots to Promising Weapons.

France is not receiving enough credit for its support of Ukraine, despite being the fourth-largest donor of aid, including political, financial, humanitarian, and military support. While France is cautious in its approach to arming Ukraine, it is still a useful supporter of the country. Macron's comments on Ukraine have been open to misinterpretation, but France's focus is on bringing about a diplomatic settlement to end the war. Paris may intensify its arms deliveries to Kyiv if Ukraine's expected spring counter-offensive suggests it will be worthwhile.
