Even though in past years France and Scotland have been friendly and wanted the best for each other, Scottish independence is not on the list of things to do for France. They have good blood together, sharing foods, music and alcohol at festivals there is no need to worry about any hatred happening even if the French does not back Scotland's independence. While some think that France would think that areas like Brittany and Corsica would want independence from France that is not the reason. To keep checks and balances in place a strong United Kingdom is needed to keep Germany in line. With the independence of Scotland, the UK gets a little bit weaker and France is not okay with that.
