From London, de Gaulle transmitted messages of support to his countrymen: "Speaking in full knowledge of the facts, I ask you to believe me when I say that the cause of France is not lost," he said. He also organized soldiers from the French colonies to fight alongside the Allied troops. As a French leader, de Gaulle sometimes irritated other leaders allied with his requests and his arrogance.
