最近俄乌局势再次引发关注，俄乌将在土耳其重启直接谈判。俄方已经公布了谈判人员的名单，但并不包括俄罗斯总统普京。乌方则表示，泽连斯基不会与 除了普京之外的俄方代表会谈，所以这次会谈大概率还是外交部门之间的接触，对停火并不抱多大期望。而法国总统马克龙也是借机高强度政治表演，他发 出"最后通牒"，普京必须决定是否接受暂时停火，否则将祭出更多制裁。因为普京无视了他的"最后通牒"，法国打算对俄罗斯实施"毁灭性经济制裁"。 在威胁制裁的时候，马克龙还表示将讨论在欧盟部署配备核武器飞机的倡议。目前法国只有阵风战机可以携带核弹，但他在讲话和采访中，一个字都没提到 阵风，看来还是"印巴5.7空战"让他还是有点破防的。马克龙一会威胁俄罗斯，一会威胁中国，还是对自身实力没有一点数。 马克龙此人着实难评，之前欧盟对华电动汽车加征关税法案就是法国主导的，然后特朗普要对欧盟加税，他却说美国最主要任务是对付中国，而非欧盟，试 图祸水东引，但特朗普不吃这一套。现在中美在瑞士暂时达成了贸易协议，欧盟着急了。因为特朗普很快就将炮口对准了欧盟，抨击欧盟比中国"还糟 糕""更不公平"，明显是磨刀霍霍向欧盟了。此时欧盟本该加强与中国合作，把这当成对付 ...
