南海議題的法國聲音:

"兩年前,一艘中國船為了阻止一艘美國軍艦在南中國海航行曾經近距離靠近美國船隻,離船尾的距離僅為五十米,這是違背海上航行的國際規定的。我並不相信美國或者日本船隻會作出同樣的行為來干涉中國艦隊的操練,儘管三國之間在南海問題上存在諸多分歧,但是,中國人完全有權利在南海進行操練,無論南中國海是否屬於中國,同樣,其他國家的船隻也同樣有權利在南海航行,因為這裡並不是中國的內海。"

"當然,我們去南中國海,北京會不滿意,但是,法國此舉的目的就是要捍衛聯合國的公海自由海洋的公約,《聯合國海洋法公約》是由一百多個國家簽署的公約,這一公約不能夠因為某一個國家的利益而被棄之不顧。這是法國軍隊巡航的唯一原因,在瑪麗安娜巡航任務結束之後,現在又有 代號為聖女貞德的演習,法國海軍將與美國,日本,澳大利亞等國的海軍在南海舉行聯合軍演,也是出於同樣的目的,在演習結束之後,法國軍艦將返回土倫港,這也是一次捍衛自由航行的演習,在一個可以自由航行的海域,南中國海並不是中國的內湖,也不可能成為中國的一條內湖。"

紐時對美法會談的報導:

[ Such Gaullist assertions of independent French strategy tend to play well here, and Mr. Macron plans to run for re-election next year. In the end, France joined the other large, wealthy democracies at the G7 in making clear that they saw China and Russia as repressive and aggressive ideological rivals, and other NATO members in saying China presents “systemic challenges” to “areas relevant to military security.”]

“阿梅洛說,目前歐盟印太戰略非常簡單,「且很奇怪,竟沒有提到作為經濟之肺及海軍熱點的南海地區。這表明歐盟國家在面對中國議題與印太強權競爭時,難以達成一致立場」。

然而,印太區域可以成為歐盟共同外交與安全政策(PESC)的實驗室,「若歐盟想要有可信度與正當性,這是必要的」。

阿梅洛說:「此戰略應建構在保護民主自由秩序、尊重自由航行與台灣主權之上,以歐盟國家共同利益為核心,並讓歐盟在印太區域擁有發言權」。

主要海軍核心國應在印太區域相互支援並提前部署,以便能定期執行「自由航行任務」(FONOP),並與當地夥伴,包括印度、日本、澳洲、美國、台灣及東協,進行雙邊或多邊聯合軍事演習。他認為,歐盟核心國家應該增加海軍工業上的合作,不僅強化軍力,更提供南海周邊國家技術專業上的協助,發展其海上軍力及監控能力。”

法國與印度的太空領域合作其來有自:

"According to Indian media reports, one key area that will be part of the dialogue is ways and means to protect space assets. The rapid growth of counter-space capabilities by China is a serious development that India, France, Japan, and the U.S. have been grappling with. China’s growing inventory of counter-space capabilities is something the Indo-Pacific powers can no longer ignore. Although China has repeatedly reiterated that its space program is purely peaceful, India as well as other Indo-Pacific space powers remain concerned about China’s recent advances in outer space because of the inherent strategic and security risks. The social, economic, and security stakes of China’s counter-space capabilities are sufficiently challenging for India and France as well as other space players to come together and develop a shared sense of gaps and vulnerabilities that they may be exposed to. This competition and risks are only likely to grow in the coming years as outer space is increasingly caught up in the changing geopolitics and major power competition. "

法國與印度在艦艇的合作:

"「船帆座號」是「印度P75號」專案計畫(P-75 India)的一部分。在此專案計畫之下,印度將興建6艘鮋魚級攻擊潛艦,由法國海軍船舶集團(Naval Group)提供技術協助、印度國營馬札岡船塢公司(Mazagon Dock)在孟買承造。"

"印度國防部新聞稿未提及此級潛艦的規格與能力,但根據媒體報導,鮋魚級潛艦水下航度可達20節,4節航速下續航力1020公里,具反潛、反艦及布雷能力。

此級潛艦中的一部分將採用絕氣推進系統(AIP),讓潛艦可在無需獲取外部氧氣供柴油主機運轉的情況下,更長時間地潛航。"

一套電磁推射系統換近廿年支持安穩,超划算!~

"根據美國國防安全合作局(DSCA)新聞稿指出,法國政府向美方要求購入1套電磁式飛機推射系統、2組發射器裝置;及1套先進攔阻系統和3組引擎裝置,同時包含了陸基測試備件、船艦安裝與操作維護人員培訓等服務,總價為13.21億美元,美國國務院於21日宣布批准出售。"

"未來,美國政府所出售的新型電磁式飛機推射系統,將會安裝於法軍預計將於2025年建造的「新世代航空母艦」(Porte-avions de nouvelle génération)上,有望提昇該艦的起降效率,增加美法戰機間的操作互通性(Interoperability),以改善北約盟國的安全,但不會改變區域的基本軍事平衡。

2033至2038年,美國政府及承包商代表共40人,每年將撥出10週前往法國,支持「新世代航空母艦」安裝新型電磁式飛機推射系統的「飛行甲板認證」(Flight Deck Certification)及艦載機適應性測試(Aircraft Compatibility Testing)等工作。"

第一次看到美方新聞稿格式發得這麼亂七八糟的... :ablobeyes:

"This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to improve security of a NATO ally which is an important force for political stability and economic progress in Europe.

The proposed sale will result in continuation of interoperability between the United States and France. EMALS and AAG will be incorporated in France’s next-generation aircraft carrier program. France will have no difficulty absorbing this equipment into its armed forces. "
