French President Emmanuel Macron has suggested that foreign leaders, specifically naming Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former U.S. President Donald Trump, are exploiting the recent riots in France for their own political agendas. Speaking in Qatar, Macron stated that leaders engaged in election campaigns, both regionally and across the Atlantic, are disseminating narratives that certain circles are clearly trying to promote. He accused them of using France for their political campaigns, asserting that France already has sufficient domestic challenges to address.
Macron further alleged that information manipulation has led to unacceptable and foolish remarks from various individuals, including foreign leaders. When questioned if he was referring to Donald Trump, Macron responded, "Among others." He also claimed that some international media reports featured fabricated AI videos depicting scenes that never occurred in France, such as claims of an invasion by migrants and Islamists, which he described as entirely false.
Earlier, Prime Minister Netanyahu had stated in an interview with i24NEWS that France is grappling with an invasion of extreme Islam. Similarly, former President Trump had blamed immigration for the violent unrest in France, commenting that the issue stems from people entering countries while hating them, and urged for border closures to regain control.
