Fabius evokes the cancellation of the delivery of 2 PCBs "Mistral" to Russia

Wrong.Russia can't defeat western european militaries on their own.

Eastern Europe is weak,true that,Western Europe is still superior to Russia,especially if you take them combined.
if not Russia not can NATO also Russia have huge Number of Short,medium,long range conventional Missiles.
 
West Europe's big three, that is, the UK and France and Germany, are the only ones when allied together can challenge Russia on pretty much equal terms. Italy and Spain are too weak to challenge Russia. Sweden is too small to challenge Russia. Below not yet updated with the Republic of Crimea.

France will NOT deliver any weapons to Russia but....




according to them Mistrals are civilian ships .:fie:

PARIS — France views its two advanced helicopter carriers sold to Russia as unarmed civilian ships, and it is too early to say whether the €1.2 billion deal (US $1.7 billion) would be canceled in view of the Ukraine crisis, Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said Wednesday.

“We will deliver civilian hulls,” Le Drian said at an aeronautics and defense conference organized by business daily Les Echos. “It’s a reality. The client can then arm the two ships. We will deliver, under the signed contract, a package which is not armed.”

The way i see it,2 ways remain.:

-1.Secretly develop own nuclear weapons-highly unlikely

-2. Receive our new Russian ovelords -likely ...Oh,almost forgot:**** the EU !

France Should Return Money if Warship Deal Cancelled – Rogozin

MOSCOW, March 20 (RIA Novosti) – France should either fulfill its contract obligations under a June 2011 contract to deliver two Mistral-class warships to the Russian navy or return the money, a Russian deputy premier said on Wednesday.

French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said on Monday that Paris will consider canceling the 1.2-billion-euro deal if Moscow provokes further escalation in Ukraine.

The remarks came after the US and EU imposed sanctions on senior Russian officials following a referendum in Ukraine's Crimea in which voters overwhelmingly supported secession and reunification with Russia.

“Either stick to your contract obligations and deliver the warships in time, or return the money and parts of these warships’ hulls, assembled at our Baltiysky Zavod [shipyard],” said Dmitry Rogozin, a deputy premier in charge of the defense industry.

A source in Russia’s United Shipbuilding Corporation told RIA Novosti on the condition of anonymity that France will also have to pay huge penalties if it chooses to unilaterally terminate the contract.

Under a June 2011 contract signed between Russia and France, the first French Mistral-class amphibious assault ship, named Vladivostok, will be delivered to Russia by the year-end, while the second warship, the Sevastopol, is due to arrive in 2015.

The ships are capable of carrying 16 helicopters, four landing craft, 70 armored vehicles, and 450 soldiers and are expected to be deployed with Russia’s Pacific Fleet.
