But your translation is inaccurate. it would be more something like:
"They were decided to occupy France like an enemy territory"
It was not the French who described the liberating force as an enemy, but that the liberating for was acting like an occupying force and didn’t see the French as allied but as enemy.
You can look at the Allied Military Government of Occupied Territories (originally abbreviated AMGOT, later AMG) for more information. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allied_Military_Government_of_...
