EU President To Be Impeached? Macron, Orban EXPLODES Over EU-U.S Trade Deal | Slams Von Der Leyen

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is facing intense criticism after allegedly caving to Donald Trump’s aggressive trade demands out of fear that the U.S. might slash military support to Ukraine or withdraw troops from Europe. According to the Sunday Times, von der Leyen accepted a harsh 15% tariff on most EU exports during a visit to Trump’s golf course in Scotland—scrapping a counter-tariff plan her officials had prepared. Brussels also pledged $600 billion in U.S. investments and $750 billion in American energy purchases. Leaders like Macron and Orban slammed the deal, with the latter claiming Trump “ate her for breakfast.” Backlash is growing in the EU, where von der Leyen faces rebellion over military spending, vaccine scandals, and dwindling parliamentary support. With Trump’s “posture review” looming, the EU’s strategic future hangs in the balance. Critics say this may be von der Leyen’s final chance to recover politically. #TrumpVsEU #EUTradeDeal #VonDerLeyen #TrumpTariffs #UkraineAid #USTroopsEurope #MacronSlamsEU #BrusselsBacklash #USvsEU #TradeUltimatum #EUSurrender #EuropeanUnion #TrumpDeal #EnergyImports #EUUSRelations #EUDefenseSpending #PostureReview #Geopolitics #VonDerLeyenUnderFire #SundayTimesReport ~ED.102~HT.408~

France Ramps Up Action After Palestine Recognition With Massive Aid Drop And Ceasefire Push | Video

France has launched an airdrop mission delivering 40 tonnes of emergency food aid into Gaza, in a dramatic response to an escalating famine crisis in the embattled Strip. Each of the four flights carried 10 tonnes of supplies, Foreign Minister Jean‑Noël Barrot confirmed—though he warned the gesture remains “insufficient.” Barrot and President Macron demanded that Israel quickly reopen air, land, and sea routes to allow unhindered aid access, calling current conditions “absolutely intolerable.” A recent WHO report showed that since July, 5,000 children under five have been treated for acute malnutrition, and at least 63 have died of starvation. The move follows weeks of humanitarian pauses and airdrops by allies including Jordan, the UAE, Germany, and the UK—but global agencies warn only sustained land convoys can truly meet the desperate needs. Against the backdrop of rising international pressure and US envoy visits, France’s action adds fresh urgency to the crisis. #FranceAidGaza #GazaFamine #HumanitarianAirdrop #JeanNoelBarrot #Macron #OpenAidCorridors #WHOReport #ChildMalnutrition #GazaCrisis #IsraelAidRestrictions #HumanitarianAccess #JordanUAEFlights #GermanyAid #UKAidDrop #FamineInGaza #StarvationDeaths #CeasefirePressure #GlobalAidPush #LandRoutesNeeded #UrgentRelief ~GR.124~HT.408~
