"in order to improve the capacity of the Russian armed forces and Frenchwomen to be worked together."
Good grief, Nans: you had me worried there - poor Frenchwomen -sacrificed to peasant hordes and rabid Cossacks.
But no 'fran�aises" is just a feminine plural adjective describing "forces".
thank Heavens: what with the thread on "sex" elsewhere and now this, Estragon is all of a twitter.

"afin d'am�liorer la capacit� des forces arm�es russes et fran�aises � travailler ensemble.": "with a view to improving the scope of the Russian and French armed forces for colaboaration".

Incidentally, I'd love to know what this long history of collaboration is. This would be Napoleon? The Crimean War? helping the Poles break free of the Soviets after the collapse of Imperial Russia?
Or 40 years of the Russians trying to destabilise France through the French Communists?
There was, of course, in the past, an enormous bond between French culture and the aristocracy of Tsarist times (as any reader of Tolstoy or other great novelists will know) - indeed, French was the first language of the aristocracy.
But, military collaboration?
No, this is winding up Uncle Sam, again.
