"Trump might abandon us. This is a failed operation" — former French Army General Michel Yakovlev warns Macron not to enter the Strait of Hormuz.

"It's a question of trust. After all, this is the man who abandoned the Afghans, which means he'll abandon us when it suits him, when we're still in the operation.

And the final argument is the American one: you don't exacerbate a failure. That's what I learned in American military school. You don't exacerbate a failure. We need to find another solution, move on, but not exacerbate a failure. That's why we have reasons not to go there."
