Also: if you're of the mind that France didn't withdraw from NATO and wind up as a Post-TDM belligerent nation, then real world events dovetail nicely: in 1995 France realigned it's military more with NATO and started more active participation in NATO operations, increasing on a yearly basis and they're now a full member again (although clearly T2k changes everything from '96 onward).
So if you're playing with the idea that France comes back in to line with NATO, there's real-world events to support that point of view.
