French people demonstrated this Sunday, February 12 at the call of the president of the Patriots Florian Philippot for the exit of their country from NATO and against arms deliveries to Ukraine. "Macron your war we don't want it!": a march in favor of France's exit from the Atlantic Alliance took place in Paris on the initiative of the president of the Patriots Florian Philippot who assures that "thousands and thousands" of people took part.

The demonstrators also demanded an end to Western arms deliveries to the Ukrainian authorities. On his Twitter, Mr.Philippot called this "first national peace march" a "very, very big success". Earlier, in an interview with Sputnik, the former MEP accused the United States of pushing European countries to the forefront on the Ukrainian file, knowingly making them take all the risks.
