    Default Franco-Polish Relations

    *sorry for lack of 'the' before 'title' but it didn't fit.




    Because I usually start with heavy artillery shelling the other side which has some predictable results, perhaps the opposite approach will be a better idea.


    So let us start with kind words about more pleasant links between Poland and France.

    After all we have so spectacular examples, such as:



    Fryderyk Chopin and his lady with very much lady-like firstname George Sand


    Napoleon Bonaparte and Mrs Walewska


    Charles de Gaulle and his little friend he met in Poland while serving in '5 Chasseurs Polonais' or perhaps after that in July or August 1920 - it is unclear, major de Gaulle never spoke about the relationship openly.


    François Rochebrune

    and his Zouaves of Death

    *of course the picture shows a French Zouave who was inferior to a Polish zouave, but that is obvious.






    So perhaps we could return to a friendly exchange of arguments ?



    Now the subject.

    A Europe of blocks maybe ?


    Let us hope we will avoid any problems with communication this time.



    So do you think that the EU will see regional blocks dictating its policy or more a collection of temporary alliances only in certain areas e.g. common agriculture policy ?
