PARIS – France’s return to NATO’s integrated military structure after a 43-year absence last year brought to an end one of the exceptions françaises. It also helped frame the growing debate over whether to develop European defense more effectively or to seriously reform the Atlantic alliance.
发自巴黎 —— 去年法国在时隔 43 年后重返北约一体化军事架构，从而为又一个事务所谓“法国例外” （ exceptions françaises ，意指将法国排除在外的国际事务）的历史画上了句点。而这也有助于设立一个框架，来容纳越来越多关于是应当发展更高效的欧洲防务，还是对美欧大西洋联盟进行重大改革的辩论。
