Papal Conclave: Macron Accused of Meddling in Papal Conclave to Push French Cardinal for Next Pope? [Video]

Papal Conclave: Macron Accused of Meddling in Papal Conclave to Push French Cardinal for Next Pope?

French President Emmanuel Macron is under scrutiny for allegedly trying to sway the upcoming papal conclave in favor of French cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline. Conservative Italian outlets claim Macron met with key Vatican figures to boost Aveline’s candidacy. While some label it a diplomatic power play to restore influence with the Holy See, others dismiss it as rumor. The conclave, set for May 7, will see 135 cardinals vote to elect Pope Francis’ successor. The Elysee and Catholic groups deny interference, but suspicion continues to swirl in Rome and beyond. #Macron #PapalConclave #PopeElection #Vatican #JeanMarcAveline #CatholicChurch #PopeFrancis #France #Italy #HolySee #SantEgidio #VaticanPolitics #Conclave2025 #Cardinals #PapalSuccession #PopeNews #Rome #MacronScandal #ChurchInfluence #WorldNews Also Read Pope finds compatible clergy in Global South :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pope-finds-compatible-clergy-in-global-south-3453599.html?ref=DMDesc With a confluence of two events under one roof, India to host over 50 political, economic leaders :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/with-a-confluence-of-two-events-under-one-roof-india-to-host-over-50-political-economic-leaders-3430539.html?ref=DMDesc IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to inaugurate 3rd edition of NIC Tech Conclave in New Delhi :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/it-minister-ashwini-vaishnaw-to-inaugurate-3rd-edition-of-nic-tech-conclave-in-new-delhi-3378452.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.121~

Vatican Prepares for May 7 Conclave| Vatican Firefighters Install Sistine Chapel Chimney

As the Vatican prepares for the May 7 conclave to elect a new pope following the death of Pope Francis, a major milestone was reached with the installation of the Sistine Chapel chimney. Vatican firefighters mounted the symbolic chimney on Friday — the structure through which black or white smoke will signal the outcome of the secret papal vote. Cardinals from around the world, including those over 80 who cannot vote, have gathered for pre-conclave discussions addressing the Church's future, internal reforms, and the legacy of Francis’ transformative papacy. All eyes now turn to the Sistine Chapel, where tradition and suspense converge in a centuries-old ritual of choosing the next leader of the Catholic Church. #PapalConclave2025 #ConclaveLive #VaticanConclave #NewPope2025 #PapalElection #SistineChapelConclave #BlackSmokeWhiteSmoke #PopeElection2025 #PapalSuccession #ConclaveExplained #PapalCandidates #PapalLegacy #VaticanNews #ConclaveUpdates #Pope2025 Also Read Pope finds compatible clergy in Global South :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pope-finds-compatible-clergy-in-global-south-3453599.html?ref=DMDesc With a confluence of two events under one roof, India to host over 50 political, economic leaders :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/with-a-confluence-of-two-events-under-one-roof-india-to-host-over-50-political-economic-leaders-3430539.html?ref=DMDesc IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to inaugurate 3rd edition of NIC Tech Conclave in New Delhi :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/it-minister-ashwini-vaishnaw-to-inaugurate-3rd-edition-of-nic-tech-conclave-in-new-delhi-3378452.html?ref=DMDesc

U.S Trade War: Russia Won’t Beg U.S. to Lift Sanctions as Trade Falls 95% Since Peak Says Lavrov

U.S Trade War: Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov declared that Moscow won’t chase the U.S. for sanctions relief, despite bilateral trade plunging 95% from its peak a decade ago. Speaking to Kommersant, Lavrov criticized U.S. sanctions as destructive to globalization, saying they’ve only backfired on the West. He emphasized Russia’s pivot towards Asia and the Global South, and stressed economic independence. Former President Trump recently extended U.S. sanctions, citing national security concerns, while hinting at potential relief tied to the Black Sea Grain Initiative. #RussiaUSRelations #Lavrov #Sanctions #TradeWar #GlobalEconomy #RussiaSanctions #BidenPolicy #Trump #UkraineWar #ForeignPolicy #Geopolitics #RussiaChina #IndiaTrade #GlobalSouth #EconomicShift #Moscow #USSanctions #Putin #BlackSeaGrainDeal #Eurasia Also Read MEA Engages with US Authorities to Clarify Sanctions on Indian Entities Amid Ongoing Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/in-touch-with-us-authorities-sanctions-indian-entities-011-3976289.html?ref=DMDesc Serbia's President Aleksandar Vucic Thanks Putin for Gas Supplies and Rejects Sanctions Against Russia :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/serbia-president-thanks-putin-gas-supplies-sanctions-011-3965597.html?ref=DMDesc Former Trump Adviser Charged for Work with Sanctioned Russian Network :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-charges-dimitri-simes-for-russian-tv-work-sanctions-011-3926945.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~ED.346~
