This is unlikely to match both the French and the English sentence linked. One is past tense, the other present.

Which does the Chinese sentence match?

fucongcong can confirm, but I believe both are okay, as the Chinese could be either past or present.

If that's so then it could also direct-link to the second English sentence.

if "have to" and "have no choice but to" can be considered alike... But yes, the French is just "have to", so you're probably right.

There is no tense in Chinese, or we can say not so obvious.
So the Chinese sentence can match both the English and the French one.

The Chinese one can be "direct linked" to 482282 as well, I think...
