French troops to leave Afghanistan

French troops to leave Afghanistan
Nicolas Sarkozy, whilest still president had promissed that the French part of the coalition troops in Afghanistan would leave by 2012.
Since the year is coming to an end and the exit of french troops has started in march, the war for the French seem to come to an end.

If my memory is right, France is the second major nation to leave Afghanistan after the Dutch (in 2010).

The war was deeply unpopular in France with polls showing 61% percent of the french population being against it.

Personaly, I see the war as lost. And it`s consequences as damaging for the participants.
