Not to sound like a historical geek...
I think he meant the France we know today was founded by the Franks [Germanic Tribe] who conquered Gaul and helped to shape/formulate the French Culture, Customs/Laws and Language of the land; as you may already know the Franks also gave their name to the country [France=Land of the Franks]. Furthermore, the Franks also ensured the continuity/maintenance of Roman institutions, founding of numerous settlements/towns and reorganised society with the application of Frankish Civil Law Code/Salic Law.
The truth is its not as simple as immigration is bad and westerncivilization and white homogeneity is good. I know alot of people who feel insignificant in their life and achievements see it that way and the politicians exploit this personal insecurity, these often men from lower income households who have a innate desire to prove themselves and one way they do this is by seeing themselves as (young white men) as special bastions and protecrors of a dying society. I think you if the circumstances were changed and born as a frenchmen would probably act in the same manner as these young men because despite the racial and ethnic differences you have the same or similar insecurities and problems.

And Oromos being akin to the Irish
The norman or northmen ruled northwest France after deal with french nobles scoring the princess & land to stop raiding them & for them to protect France they got bored after a while conquered England after famous battle of Hastings in the 10/1100's from the town named after them Normandy. The famous English king & crusader Richard the lion heart was great great grandson of that conquerer & 1st king William who founded current royal family of UK. The Normans also invaded Ireland southern Italy and established a kingdom on Canary Islands in Africa. The Normans were Norwegian Vikings led by Rollo the great!
The Vikings/Normans were truly honourable & hardy explorers/conquerors in human history. Nowadays they're getting well deserved credit/recognition for the discovery of the Americas [Vinland].
Younger Eastern-Europeans are becoming more and more like in western Europe, I've been to Bulgaria, Hungary, Macedonia and Romania and all the under 30s there I met are all learning English and desperately want to emulate somewhere like Germany, and further integration with the EU is going to mean immigration quotas in the future for places like Poland, Czechia, etc. Europe is going to resemble Brazil in the 2050s racially. People would rather be a Germany (consistently growing economically, per capital income doubling since 2000 but tons of immigration), than a Japan (ethnostate but stagnant economically since the 90s)
It's rather interesting because Putin claims to oppose Far-Right populism in Ukraine, but actively supports the Far-Right Populist leader Marine Le pen.
