The Nupes is torn on international subjects. After initial internal friction linked to the motion for a resolution aimed at denouncing the alleged “institutionalization by Israel of an apartheid regime”, it is now the emerging tensions between Beijing and Taipei that are cracking the cartel of the lefts. “Mélenchon spoke of “provocation” when democratic Ukraine defended itself in the Donbass against authoritarian Russia. And (he) speaks of “provocation” of Taiwan when this country acts freely against China.
