France Sees “crisis” Over Submarine Cancellation | Michigan News Agency In Battle Creek

Michigan News Agency in Battle Creek | Apadana Media
France is in a “crisis” with the United States and Australia after Canberra’s cancellation of a multi-billion dollar submarine order led Paris to recall envoys from its allies, French Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said.
France said on Friday it was recalling its ambassadors from Washington and Canberra over a trilateral security deal also involving Britain which sank the submarine contract with Paris.
“The fact that, for the first time in the history of relations between the United States and France, we are recalling our ambassador for consultations is a grave political act that shows the intensity of the crisis today between our two countries and also with Australia,” Le Drian told France 2 television.
“There has been duplicity, contempt and lies – you can’t play that way in an alliance,” he added.
Canberra announced on Thursday it would scrap its 2016 deal with France’s Naval Group to build a fleet of conventional submarines and instead build at least eight nuclear-powered ones with U.S. and British technology ...
... after striking a trilateral security pact.
Le Drian said French President Emmanuel Macron had not spoken with U.S. President Joe Biden about the submarine issue.
The minister again drew a parallel between the U.S. president’s action and the unpredictable style of his predecessor Donald Trump, adding that Biden had acted “without the tweets but with a sort of solemn announcement that is rather unbearable”.
Le Drian also repeated criticism of what Paris sees as opportunism from former European Union member Britain in joining forces with Washington and Canberra, calling London “the spare tyre” of the initiative.
