My French is so-so, enough to get around Paris, but from looking at the papers (being here for business), I see little on the aftermath of the arrest of Telegram CEO Pavel Durov, who has been released on bail, but has had his three passports taken. Still, this nasty anti-free speech action by the French state has not gone unnoticed. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is considering the possibility of a complete blockade of military-technical cooperation with France. The UAE has already frozen the implementation of the contract for the purchase of 80 fighters from France, with Durov being a citizen of the UAE. It is possible that this may have an impact, but the bigger issue here is that the globalists were wanting to send a message to Elon Musk, their main target, so France may have to wear the military hardware loss, taking one for the globalist tribe.
