All I was trying to say is this wasn't a request at the EU level. I assume by Europe you meant EU. Correct me if I'm wrong.

You are correct that indeed France made the proposal that Russia stops destroying Ukrainian energy infrastructure and Ukraine would do the same thing. France as a country has that right to make such proposals. That doesn't make it a request or proposal at the EU level.

I have no idea how the no true scotsman fallacy applies to this. Maybe I'm missing something here
