The coalition of the unwilling begins to unravel as France defies US-imposed sanctions on Russia.
Despite hesitation, France has decided to deliver Mistral helicopter carriers to Russia. This was announced by senior representative of STX shipbuilding company.
“The transfer of the first Mistral helicopter carrier is a matter of several days or weeks,” RIA Novosti said with reference to the source.
Earlier, France threatened to suspend the delivery of helicopter carriers to Russia on account of the ongoing crisis in Ukraine. Afterwards, a spokesperson for Elysee Palace said that the delivery of the ship had not been suspended from a legal point of view.

That’s true. But based on Obama’s recent foreign policy reversals, it’s my impression that this bully is pretty toothless. For one thing, he’s totally overstretched militarily.

That’s true. But I can’t visualize any French politicians sacrificing their political career (by sinking the French economy) to keep the CIA from assassinating them.

Lost trust and a strong opposition (SCO & BRICS) is likely to thwart maffia-type assassinations from driving the geopolitical in their favor.
However that will not stop the failed attempt from continuing, because they will not stop until they are stopped, if you get the meaning.

Total said in September that work on constructing a new natural gas liquefaction plant in Yamal in northwestern Siberia was continuing despite EU and US sanctions on Russia over its role in the conflict in Ukraine.
Total is developing the plant with Novatek of Russia and Chinese oil group CNPC.
Total also announced in May that it had signed a deal with Russia’s second biggest oil firm Lukoil to explore and develop shale oil deposits in western Siberia.

Even though coercion, and murder may be counter productive and no longer effective in the geopolitical agenda for the 5 eyes governance, nevertheless we can expect them to continue. Thus be alert for false flags, murder, martial law, bank holidays and all manner of emergencies to claim more authority to carry out their agenda and maintain control…
I see desperation in their monetary system and that money game is the deadliest game of all.
They will fail, because the People on Earth will not support that destructive agenda with never ending war.
Follow the money trails, we will uncover the facts.
