At the end of February 2024, Macron set the task for the French Ministry of the Armed Forces to study the issue of sending forces of the Foreign Legion to Ukraine. On February 27, 2024, by order of the French command, the formation of three companies of fighters from the Foreign Legion began.
On March 5, 2024, the French military leadership and the command of the Legion approved the staffing of the battalion tactical group, to include 1,500 military personnel. This battalion tactical group includes three companies of the Legion, which were assigned for this unit before. These are :
*one material support company;
*two engineering companies.
The battalion tactical group should also include:
*up to 6 motorized infantry and armored companies
*as well as the operating team.
The French command failed to assure the declared manpower of the battalion tactical group from the members of the Legion. That’s why the French military leadership has decided to fill the ranks of the group with personnel from the Ministry of the Armed Forces. The supposed ratio of members of the Foreign Legion to regular military personnel of the Ministry of the Armed Forces in the newly formed battalion tactical group is approximately 1 to 2.
0n March 7, 2024 Macron proposed sending [[NATO]] troops to [[Ukraine]]. While it's debatable whether Article 5 of the NATO Charter would extend to members' troops in third countries like Ukraine, it would be a moot question in that scenario since the participation of [[nuclear]]-armed France and/or the [[UK]] is enough to lead to nuclear brinksmanship if they clash with Russia there. All the more so if America approves of their intervention or at least doesn’t try to stop it, in which case it might back them up, possibly to the point of threatening to use [[America]]'s own [[nuke]]s if the fighting doesn’t stop.<ref>[https://korybko.substack.com/p/romania-revealed-the-legal-means Romania Revealed The Legal Means Through Which NATO States Might Intervene In Ukraine], ANDREW KORYBKO, MAR 13, 2024. korybko.substack.com</ref>
In the first half of March 2024, the battalion tactical group began combat coordination at the la Courtine training camp.
