France's Chief of Staff: 'We must be prepared to lose our children'

France's Chief of Staff, Fabien Mandon, recently addressed mayors in Paris, urging them to prepare the public for potential wars. He emphasized the need for "willingness to endure the suffering that comes with defending the nation."

Mandon highlighted that while France has the resources to deter threats from Moscow, it lacks the resolve to face the sacrifices required for defense. This speech has stirred considerable discussion across France, especially with Mandon, whom President Emmanuel Macron recently appointed.
