Once the crisis is over, France is going to be pulling back a lot of the forces it deployed, especially the supercarrier. There will be units remaining behind on alert, but they'll also demobilize quite soon when it's clear the threat has passed. They're not out to conquer Mendel territory or threaten anyone offensively, even if there's a clear opening for it. But threatening France directly comes at great cost, as it will defend itself with all of the forces, diplomatic, military, economic, at its disposal.
