French military in Ukraine would be priority target for Russia, official says

Sergei Naryshkin, chief of Russia's foreign intelligence service, said on Tuesday that any French military sent to Ukraine to help fight Russia would be a priority target for Russian troops, the TASS news agency reported. "It (a French contingent) will become a priority and legitimate target for attacks by the Russian Armed Forces. This means that the fate of all Frenchmen who have ever come to the territory of the Russian world with a sword would await it," Naryshkin said. French President Emmanuel Macron in late February opened the door to European nations sending troops to Ukraine. (Reuters)
