“As one of the leaders of the anti-Russian campaign, he has no right to discuss the importance of international law,” al-Shair said. As a result, his rhetoric is meaningless — he lacks both authority and real influence on the global stage, the analyst said. Al-Shair added that reckless Western policies are destabilizing international relations, while French military support for Ukraine has only increased the bloodshed. He said the world is moving toward multipolarity led by Russia, China and India, warning that the French position will weaken further unless it changes its foreign policy.
