France recalled its ambassadors to the United States and Australia in response to a pact signed by the two countries along with the United
Kingdom that the French referred to as a stab in the back.
"At the request of President Macron, I have decided to immediately recall
our ambassadors to the United States and Australia to Paris for consultations," French Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Jean-Yves
Le Drain said in a statement Friday.
MACRON HAILS DEATH OF ISIS TERRORIST WHO KILLED US TROOPS AS MAJOR WIN
France has expressed outrage after an announcement this week of a pact between Australia, the United Kingdom, and the U.S. that will provide
nuclear submarines to Australia and scrap an agreement previously made to send French-made submarines to Australia.
"The abandonment of the ocean-class submarine project that Australia and France had been working on since 2016 and the announcement of a new partnership with the United States aimed at studying the possibility of future cooperation on nuclear-powered submarines constitute unacceptable behavior among allies and partners; their consequences affect the very concept we have of our alliances, our partnerships, and the importance of
the Indo-Pacific for Europe," the statement added.
FRANCE ISSUES ANGRY RESPONSE TO NUCLEAR SUBMARINE DEAL BETWEEN US, UK, AUSTRALIA
Earlier in the week, Le Drain told a French radio station that the pact, known as AUKUS and widely perceived as a challenge to China�s presence in the region, was a "stab in the back" and that France had been "betrayed."
Le Drain also compared President Biden to former President Trump.
"This brutal, unilateral and unpredictable decision reminds me a lot of
what Mr. Trump used to do," Le Drian said. "I am angry and bitter. This
isn't done between allies."

White House press secretary Jen Psaki denied that the move had created a "regional divide" and said that France was notified of the deal prior to
the announcement.
A White House official told Fox News that the Biden administration
"regrets" France's decision but "will continue to be engaged in the coming days to resolve our differences."

So much for free trade and competition, the 'gaff' concerned was
allowing the US and Britain to compete with France when it came to
Australia ordering its first nuclear submarines.
In terms of rating the general consensus that the top 3 SSN's are
1) US Seawolf Class
2) US Virginia Class
The French Barracuda/Suffren class boats are considerably smaller and
less capable than the British and UK offerings but with pump jet
propulsion should be quieter than the Chinese SSN's

Six new attack submarines will form the vanguard of the French Navy
(Marine Nationale) for the coming decades. Developed (paid for by
Australia) as the Barracuda program, the lead boat of the new class,
Suffren, is expected to formally join the fleet next year. The new
submarines will offer a massive capability leap over the current
Rubis-class boats.

But for that to happen, you have to have a design/specifications so that
when the tender documents come in you can compare like to like. From
what I've gleaned, I think it was just the defence types looking at what
was our there ie, with German, Japanese and French subs.
