   Democracy in other nations may choose for a better path to lower energy and   
   food costs by slowing NATO support for Ukraine. The people may be more   
   interested in  relieving domestic issues rather than supporting the US led war   
   against Russia in the    
   Ukraine. After Napoleon's retreat from Moscow, France has little interest in   
   another Ukrainian war.   
    In 2024 US will choose a different President so as to end the conflict.   
   Current US policy is to arm a prolonged insurgency in Easter Ukraine. US took   
   over the fight against communism in Indochina from France in the 50's and see   
   where that led to. China    
   has proven that a communist state can prosper.   
   US wants to take out Russia first. If successful, US will then target China by   
   choking off China's energy, but China approaching green energy objectives   
   while US far from it.  US does wish to dominate natural gas market for next   
   century.   
   Will Le Pen win?  That would be interesting. Any Nostradamus predictions   
   concerning France here, for interests sake?   
      
   Le Pen stuck to her focus on retail politics, traveling up and down the   
   country talking to voters about the impact of the conflict on their wallets.   
   She pitched the race as a battle of David versus Goliath, stoking the   
   perception of Macron as a “   
   president of the rich” who can’t understand the struggles of ordinary   
   people to cope with surging food and energy costs.
