Russia has learned from a propaganda textbook from so called West.
Yeah, surely it's Russian interference that is causing this stir, not Macron's failures, France having a completely incompetent government, massive debt from giving everything to Ukraine…no it's Russian interference. 😂
Yep it's going to be a nightmare…russia, china, maga etc….yikes
The only people spreading fake news is the EU, NATO and the west media.
France24: If the side we hate wins, then the Russians did it.
If the side we like wins, then it was completely free of interference of any kind.
Bots crying in comments again, don't engage with them
Vive la France libre
