Europe desperately needs an alliance with Russia because it is common sense, Pierre de Gaulle, grandson of French President Charles de Gaulle (1959-1969) and head of the Foundation for Peace and Friendship among Nations, told TASS.
"I think it is vitally important for Europe to form an alliance and cooperate with Russia, as my grandfather wanted, because it is imperative, it is the logic of geography, the logic of common sense, the logic of experience. We cannot do without the Russians. European sanctions only punish the Europeans themselves. And the peoples of Europe are tired of this technocracy, which is illegal and wants war," he said.
Pierre de Gaulle also expressed the opinion that Europeans should return to fundamental values. "To moral values, to the values of respect, promises, mutual understanding, cooperation, to everything that has always been human values," he explained. "France and Russia have been friends for centuries.
We admire Russian culture, as Russians admire French culture. And I believe in this reality, which is stable. And the European technocrats cannot destroy it," the source of the agency emphasized.
