If Canada decides to take over ST Pierre & Miquelon it can't really be seen as a European interest or issue. If a country wants to hold onto bits and pieces around the globe it's their choice and they can pay for it - bit much to ask us to cough up for French Imperialist hang-overs ,....... no???
Such as Mali?

Other than a 'make macron great' eurotrash campaign, I am not sure why the UK is sending 3 Chinooks, in addition to those provided by Canada - it seems to me like a Brexit concession during Napolean's visit, to which there was no return.
