Because I am french I will not say anything too dark.
But yes, this SUB contract was big. Giant.And Naval Group is partially a state company.
The Worth for french community is this : 1) French just hatted Trump. Deeply. His sense of hatting his allies ( Germany...) and loving his foes ( North Corea, ect).
2) As opposed, French loved Biden. More rounded, multi cultural, more social like in Europe. I would say french people felt Biden was a friend.
So With this SUB commercial stab in the back, the feeling of a friend that betrays us french is palpable.
It feels as if Biden just behaved like Trump.
