A great man. This century seems more than mediocre. No Churchill, no Roosevelt or De Gaulle.
De Gaulle, a great man and one of my historical and political heroes.
Yes mine too
I agree!
Avec le général la France était toute puissante !
The late Majesty Queen Elizabeth knew them all. The Titans of the glorious times...
The music is wonderful
Crazy to think that the Queen was there back in 1960 and is still around today!
alas, not anymore my friend

It is only in times of desastrous crisis that democracies vote for strong and great persons. In better times, they prefer mediocre ones.
- He didn’t leave his command because he had no command. He was a very junior general but the undersecretary of war in the last government Renault. As a general, he was useless for the British. As the only minister in the French government willing to evacuate to the UK, he was priceless. If a cabinet minister had been willing to go to France, we might all have forgotten about De Gaulle.
- He earned the respect of the French in London by his personality and his political acumen. Generals like De Lattre De Tassigny and Leclerc de Hauteclocque learned to trust him, he created links with the French resistance and even managed to establish some form of authority but above all, he defended France as a beggar and was very good at it.
- He landed not as a general but as a politician dressed in the last military uniform he was allowed to wear: that of a brigade general. He did exactly as Zelensky does today, but Zelensky never had a military rank.
- When he landed, he brought with him French Francs and the the US Military Occupation money. The master manipulator Roosevelt more or less abhorred De Gaulle but he was unable to outsmart him.
- De Gaulle was a morally and physically courageous man. He was vocally about the idiocy of the Maginot line, something his superiors didn’t like. He abandoned Pétain, a man he revered as a father, when most of the world thought Hitler was invincible and the UK was done for. He antagonised both Churchill and Roosevelt, knowing full well the stories about the death of Polish general Sikorsk another general who became the political leader of his country in exile.
- He entered Paris at a time there were still shots fired and his staff wanted him to stay safe. He knew he had to be there to counter any attempt of a coup by the communists and he went.
I can go on and on but you probably know all this. I don’t blame you. De Gaulle trolled the British by doing what they really wanted: he blocked the entry of the UK in the EU. Years later, the British confirmed he was right. :)
Que pro el Charles De Gaulle
Having had the fortune of knowing personally these true leviathans of the preceding century (e.g., Churchill, de Gaulle, Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Enoch Powell, the Duke of York), no doubt her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II found the personages (political or otherwise) of this century to be resolutely mediocre, trite, and bland in comparison to the towering giants of her youth!
He fled to england in 1940 leaving his command
Returned in 1944 after the
Americans and british had
Secured the beaches
And entered paris as a hero
Having only broadcasted
Over the radio while in
Absentia!
The thing you don't understand is that De Gaulle was the symbol of France, Vichy France was ruled by the germans so Free France was the only remains of the country, De Gaulle not only maintain France but impose France to the allies and change theirs plans so for your pov of anglo-americain or something else, he did nothing but from our pov he litterally saved the country or else it would be a second rank nation. Also he was our best president every Republic considered.
He's victory was saving France.
France didn't do anything to help
Poland in spite of the treaty
After Declaring war in 1939
Where was degaulle then
Did he make an armoured thrust
Into Germany!
@@angloaust1575that time he was not in power
Of course, he fled to England; on 2 August, 1940, the Vichy regime had condemned him to death by court martial in absentia!
Mon soutien est pour Monsieur Macron : le meilleur président de la Ve République ! Même De Gaulle n’est pas à son niveau => sa politique intérieure, sa diplomatie internationale : tout me pousse vers lui… En fait, je crois que je l’aime
Le meilleur, le fort, l'intelligence💪
Le souverain, la royauté, la France 💶🇨🇵
Économiquement, techniquement
Le meilleur président qu'il soit, Charles de Gaulle ? Non.
J'ai bien nommé Emmanuel Macron, le meilleur président au monde, le meilleur président que la France a connu.
Le président macron est le sauveur et le père fondateur de la nouvelle-france. Même jésus et de gaulle sont inférieurs à lui. Vive le grand macron Je m’incline chaque jour devant sa photo
@@AnarchismKnowsNoBorders je ne suis pas d'accord avec vous
Le meilleur fossoyeur de la France, oui. La marionnette des mondialistes. Visiblement, elle est bonne ta came.
Tu te moques de qui là, avec ton avatar d'anarchiste ? Tu penses qu'on te croit ? 🤔 😕 🙄 🤪
Appropriate that DeGaulle should come to England to thank them for saving France. While Americans and British fought and died Asparagus sat on his duff in London.
That’s the High Asparagus to you
Ah yes, and who ran their asses back to their island 6 weeks into the war while covered by the French army again ? Dont act clownish. The price of blood has been paid by all
