00:00Thank you, Mr. President.

00:04Madame la Vice-Présidente,

00:06What is happening today around the Groenland

00:09is far beyond a diplomatic agreement.

00:12It is an effort of power and truth for Europe.

00:15The President of the United States puts the European Union

00:18against a clear choice,

00:20accepting a vassalization

00:22under the transatlantic partnership

00:24or becoming sovereign actors,

00:26capable of defending our interests and integrity.

00:29The moment that we live is not an accident of history.

00:32It is the aboutissement

00:34of decades of strategic pavements

00:36nourished by the illusion of a pacified mondialization

00:39and by the progressive abandon of our autonomy

00:41in the profit of a comfortable independence.

00:43When an American president

00:45menace openly a European state,

00:47when he combines a territorial pressure

00:50with a commercial commercial explicit,

00:52it is not only a partner who express it,

00:55it is a force of force.

00:57And it is our credibility

00:59which is then made up.

01:00The Groenland,

01:01territory four times more vast

01:02than the France,

01:04is becoming a global pivot

01:05strategy,

01:06at the heart of new rivalities

01:08between great powers

01:09which renew with the imperial logic.

01:11We say here,

01:12what is happening today

01:14is the conflicts of tomorrow.

01:16Céder would create a grave precedent

01:19which would concern tomorrow

01:20other European countries

01:21and perhaps after tomorrow

01:23the ultra-marins

01:24French countries

01:25who would,

01:26to their turn,

01:27will have a comparable pressure.

01:29In terms of sovereignty,

01:30every announcement

01:31calls the following.

01:32Face to this situation,

01:33the European Union

01:34is at the foot of the wall

01:35but does not have the right

01:36to be in front of the provocations

01:37which threaten

01:38its prosperity and integrity.

01:39L'accord négocié

01:40l'été dernier

01:41par la présidente

01:42von der Leyen

01:43devrait être suspendu

01:44immédiatement en retour.

01:45L'Union Européenne

01:46doit activer sans délai

01:47ses instruments

01:48anti-coercition

01:49et assumer des mesures

01:50ciblées

01:51sur les services

01:52et les exportations

01:53américaines

01:54à destination de l'Europe.

01:55Elle doit mettre en œuvre

01:56la préférence européenne

01:57dans les marchés de défense.

01:58Il ne s'agit pas d'escalade,

02:00il s'agit de notre souveraineté.

02:02Car au fond,

02:03mesdames, messieurs,

02:04le choix est simple,

02:05accepter une fois encore

02:06la dépendance

02:07ou reprendre la maîtrise

02:08de notre destin.

02:09Notre soumission

02:10serait une faute historique.

02:12Derrière cette épreuve

02:13se joue notre liberté politique.

02:15Alors nous,

02:16nous faisons un choix clair,

02:17celui des peuples souverains,

02:18des nations libres,

02:20debout,

02:21capables d'assumer leur destin.

02:37C'est parti.

02:38C'est parti.

02:39C'est parti.
