Note also that France did not close it's borders until late winter, early spring of 1998, aproximately 6 months after the first nukes were used and about 2-3 months after long range strategic targets were hit.
Up until this time, the Pact could have been excused for thinking France and Belgium were supporting Nato even they they did not have troops on the front lines.
