I don't think France would want to open up the indemnity/ reparations conversation...
i mean they did give us democracy, existentialism, and the blow job.....
...menage à trois.....soixante-neuf....
But aside from those, what have the French done for us?
Baguette, croissant, macarron
Yes, yes, but other than that, what have the French really ever done for us?
Napoleonic law, the metric system, pasteurization
Well, yes, but other than that?
The guillotine?
I wish. Sadly, despite being heavily armed, Americans are too polite and gentle when it comes to their politicians.
They aren't? They are talking about a loan which has nothing to do with indemnity / reparations.
They financed the US independence movement / war out of self interest to screw on England and any way they got paid with the Quasi-War.
Looking at history the US were never a reliable partnet, cough remember the maine cough.
