Summary
France condemned U.S. interference after the U.S. embassy in Paris warned French firms against using diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, citing a Trump executive order banning such initiatives.
The U.S. letter required companies to certify DEI non-compliance or risk jeopardizing U.S. contracts.
France’s trade ministry called the move “unacceptable,” vowing to defend national values and businesses.
French law prohibits race-based hiring metrics, focusing instead on gender and socioeconomic inclusion.
Hey American gov: fuck off
Make America Go Away
Just to add, the only time article 5 has been triggered it was by the US at the suggestion of the UK.
And a friendly reminder that European and Canadian troops died in the way on terror

I wish they would be more creative, such a boring word.
It would be illegal for companies in France to do what Trump is demanding.
What would they get for doing it anyway? More threats?
If the US government believes if everyone is an asshole, nobody will be an asshole.
