He's not. Historically France has always been out of NATO's commandment, we rejoined fairly recently and given the situation with Trump, it's a sensible take. What we need though is a European equivalent, a unified defensive pact and a unified defensive army between all members.
I believe it's more of an aid clause than a defensive one. Like all member states must provide aid and assistance, but not necessarily armed forces to fight and defend territorial sovereignty

Wouldn't this be covered by article 42.7 of the EU charter?
