السياسة الفرنسية تجاه ألمانيا في إطار تداعيات الأزمة المراكشية الثانية، و مشكلة الالزاس و اللورين

Abstract EN

After Poincaré assumed the presidency of the Council of Ministers and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1912, he proceeded to make administrative arrangements in the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which he believed were necessary to leave the traditional policy that relies on ambassadors in drawing up French foreign policy, each according to his vision in a country he established, and move to a central policy (semi-dictatorship).

In a way that enables him to implement his policy, which he believes in, which is based on the principle of balance of power within the European continent, which makes him able to avoid any possible German attack on France, and to strive for closer diplomatic relations with Russia and Britain.

As for the Alsace Lorraine problem, all efforts to settle it between France and Germany failed because Poincaré believed that Germany was not serious in its intentions, and that its proposals to solve the problem stemmed from its attempts to isolate Russia by forcing France to remain neutral in the event of Germany entering the war with Russia.
