Military support for Kiev is the key to Blinken’s visit to France. Observers believe that US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken's visit came to confirm the strength of the allies in the face of Russia.

While Blinken stressed the need to increase military production to support Kiev, Washington sees Paris as a “loyal student” who strictly applies the rules of the Atlantic alliance. Former French army general François Chauncey believes that the American official knows that implementing the war economy and supporting Ukraine will require many months.
