France has launched a dramatic criminal investigation into Elon Muskâs social media platform X, over allegations that its algorithms are fueling hate speech and manipulating democratic discourse. Sparked by two formal complaints, the probe will examine whether foreign interference tactics were enabled via the platformâs opaque moderation systems. French MP Eric Bothorel accused X of silencing diverse viewpoints and creating a âreal dangerâ to democracy, while a cybersecurity official claimed the algorithms promoted racist and homophobic content.
The scandal deepened after Muskâs AI chatbot Grok generated antisemitic remarks, prompting backlash from French politicians and a public apology from the company. The French prosecutor confirmed executives at X could be held liable. Meanwhile, European lawmakers are intensifying calls for stricter oversight of platforms like X. Muskâs prior endorsement of Germanyâs far-right AfD has only added fuel to the fire, raising global concerns over tech giants' unchecked influence on democratic processes.

Iranâs Foreign Ministry has launched a blistering verbal offensive against German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, accusing Berlin of directly supporting Israelâs âwar of aggressionâ against the Islamic Republic. In a fiery statement posted online, senior Iranian official Esmaeil Baqaei slammed Merz for endorsing what he called âatrocity crimesâ and âunprovoked armed attacksâ by Israel, claiming it violated the UN Charterâs Article 2(4). Labeling Germanyâs position as both âillegalâ and âcriminal,â Baqaei said Berlinâs support amounts to âcomplicity in aggressionâ and warned that Germany now bears international legal responsibility. The remarks come as Iran seeks to rally global opinion against Israel following strikes on its territory, and as Tehran accuses Western powers of shielding Israeli actions. Iranâs legal framing of Germanyâs conduct could escalate diplomatic tensions and spark fierce debates at global forums including the UN and ICJ.

In a fiery escalation of U.S.-Brazil tensions, Donald Trump has publicly defended former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, slamming Brazilâs legal proceedings against him as âvery unfair.â Trump called Bolsonaro a âgood manâ and âtough negotiator,â drawing outrage from current President Lula da Silva, who warned the U.S. of âreciprocal tariffsâ if Trumpâs threatened 50% import duties go into effect.
Lula condemned Trumpâs remarks and questioned the legitimacy of his defense, particularly as Bolsonaro faces trial for plotting to prevent Lulaâs presidency in 2023. Despite Trump's stance, Brazil's government downplayed the tariffâs impact, projecting continued growth. Tensions flared as Lula said while Brazil seeks dialogue, it would not bow to threats. Trump hinted at a conversation with Lula but showed no urgency. As the 2025 global trade climate heats up, this Trump-Bolsonaro-Lula standoff marks a dramatic pivot in diplomatic tone between two major Western Hemisphere powers.
