French MEP Supports Medvedev's Criticism of NATO
Florian Philippot has remarked that former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev was expressing the “absolute truth” in his recent critiques of NATO countries and their support for Ukraine, as conveyed in a sharp social media post.

Philippot, a member of the European Parliament, was responding to Medvedev's comments from Sunday, where the ex-leader highlighted the economic troubles faced by Ukraine's Western supporters.

“The West has no money to clean up Florida after Hurricane Milton, no money for French farmers, no money to revive the German industry,” Medvedev, now the deputy head of the Russian Security Council, wrote on Telegram.

He noted that, despite these issues, these countries still manage to fund “a bunch of drunk and crazy” Ukrainians and produce weapons “to exterminate the Slavs in the military conflict.”

In a post on X, Philippot, who leads the Patriots party, stated that Medvedev “just smashed the NATO countries by throwing absolute truths at them.” Additionally, he criticized French President Emmanuel Macron, claiming that he is “also taking a beating” for his recent announcement of a “new check for 3 billion to Zelensky.”

Philippot urged Macron to “stop these checks and these arms shipments,” asserting that Medvedev’s statements are “factually terribly true!”

Last week, during his visit to a military camp in eastern France to observe the training of Ukrainian troops, Macron pledged €3 billion in military aid to Kiev for the current year. This comes on the heels of significant protests by French farmers, who demanded the lifting of preferential trade rules for Kiev and greater government support.

In the US, former President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden's administration of ignoring the needs of Hurricane Helene survivors while allocating billions in aid to Ukraine.

Meanwhile, Germany, one of Kiev’s major supporters, is facing a potential recession, with its economy projected to contract for a second consecutive year due to declining industrial output, escalating energy costs, and weak foreign demand, according to recent reports.
