Agreed...You can say stuff about Germany at least having a...not so prepared military, but France is on paper the strongest EU military power and I feel like they could be doing a lot more than they are doing. Like...France should be leading the charge, not UK, Lol. France shouldn't need UK to move first before they send LeClerc's (which they still haven't) and where is SCALP.

Every Western country should do more because they live in the luxury of having the Eastern European countries sitting between them and Russia, who is going to take the blunt of Russia's force should they ever attack? Eastern Europe.

And France shows very little desire to help America with Taiwan too, at the same time, France keeps saying about how EU should remove its dependency on America and increase their military investment but France isn't showing they can be a leader in that respect.

Macron frustrates me.

Agree and Greece is no better. They keep using the Turkey excuse, but they got plenty of Leopard 2 tanks, the most of any EU country when  last checked. They could give up 12-24 and not really impact their military power.

Some of their huge stock of Leopard 1A5 would be helpful as well. Or like 20 M109 Hauwitzers. They have over 400 of them.
