Resignation of General Pierre de Villiers, Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces
After a brutal call to order of the President of the Republic Emmanuel MACRON, the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces Pierre DE VILLIERS resigned following a deep disagreement on the government’s decisions and the consequent reduction of the general budget of the armed forces. Such a resignation has been unprecedented in France for more than 50 years. Interview with Colonel Michel GOYA, author of the blog "The way of the sword": "The message is negative, we can talk about a crisis of confidence resulting from bad decisions"
