It seems like they want to keep Russia relevant.

The best example of “know your role” in the history of ever.

We are going to get dragged into a war with NATO. I say withdraw from that now.

So France has something to lose if the war stops....ok we get it.

What a bunch of hypocrites. Want a weakened Russia, but they keep buying that Russian gas.

Mainly if someone outside of it moves in. Though Democrats haven't given a crap about holding up the Monroe Doctrine as much as they've wanted to "defend" Ukraine. Why Trump is stuck trying to revert decades worth of issues

GOOD! The cheese eating surrender monkeys can pay for it, and send their own troops to die.
They have never been willing to die for France. Let them die for Ukraine.
Their "men".
Our men.

That’s fine if Europe wants to continue the war. But they need to do it with their own money, and troops.
Not our hemisphere, not our concern.

Under a Trump presidency, when did we go to war on the Americas?

Yep. We need to stay out of things that don’t significantly impact us for a while.

The Monroe Doctrine. It is the reason why in today’s world we sanction regimes that want to cozy up to our geopolitical enemies.

All we are saying is don’t give peace a chance.

I don't know that I'd go so far as to say Russia has a lot of manpower. The population of the Soviet Union was about equal to that of the US in 1990. After the split each former republic (new European state) had it population counted separately and now Russia has a population of a little under 144 million.
Ukraine certainly has only a fraction of that population, but the EU as a conglomerate has a tad of 449 million people. For even more of a disparity in manpower, consider that the population of NATO countries in Europe (this does not include the United States) is about 973 million people.
For Macron to think that Russia is a threat to France, he has to hold to the belief pretty much every European state will fold as quickly as France did in WWII. Essentially, Macron is fearful because he knows the majority of his population consists of cheese-eating-surrender-monkeys.
