Russian Foreign Ministry’s BIG CLAIMS On Romanian Elections | ‘Telegram Founder Durov Arrested…’

Russia has accused French President Emmanuel Macron of arresting Telegram founder Pavel Durov to meddle in Romania’s 2024 elections. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova claims France acted to suppress conservative voices on Telegram during the campaign. Durov earlier stated French intelligence requested censorship on his platform. He was detained in August 2023, charged, and released on bail in March. The controversy comes amid disputed election results, disqualified candidates, and allegations of foreign interference, with Durov now offering to testify before Romanian authorities to support electoral transparency. #PavelDurov #TelegramArrest #RomanianElections #Macron #MariaZakharova #ElectionInterference #Censorship #TelegramCensorship #FrancePolitics #RussiaFranceTensions #GeorgeSimion #RomaniaVotes #DGSE #FreeSpeech #PoliticalManipulation #NicusorDan #CalinGeorgescu #MariusTuca #ForeignInterference ~ED.102~HT.336~GR.125~

Zelensky will resign and leave Ukraine, former Prime Minister Nikolay Azarov has predicted, citing what he described as a US-backed effort to remove the country’s leader. In a post on Telegram on Sunday, Azarov suggested that the decision to remove Zelensky from power “has already been made in the US” and that Washington has given the “go-ahead” for his ouster.

In their first phone call since 2022, Vladimir Putin and Emmanuel Macron clashed over Iran’s nuclear program.

Lavrov SLAMS Macron, Merz Of Reviving ‘Nazi-Era Instincts’ In Bid To Conquer Europe Again [Video]

Lavrov SLAMS Macron, Merz Of Reviving ‘Nazi-Era Instincts’ In Bid To Conquer Europe Again

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has launched a scathing attack on French President Emmanuel Macron and German opposition leader Friedrich Merz, accusing them of attempting to revive Europe's imperialist past. Speaking at a diplomatic event, Lavrov warned that Western leaders were reverting to their “former instincts” of conquest and domination, drawing chilling comparisons between today’s political climate and Nazi-era atrocities. He further stated that “German and Ukrainian Nazis are united by their attitudes toward those they want to enslave,” claiming that just as some “burned Jews,” others now “burn Russians.” Lavrov’s remarks come amid intensifying tensions between Moscow and the West over the war in Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing European militarization. The inflammatory comments are expected to draw condemnation from European capitals but are in line with Russia’s narrative of positioning itself as a bulwark against Western hegemony and what it calls modern-day fascism. #Lavrov #Macron #Merz #RussiaEuropeTensions #Nazism #UkraineWar #GermanyPolitics #FranceNews #RussianFM #ConqueringEurope #RussianStatement #LavrovSpeech #RussiaVsWest #UkraineConflict #ModernNazism #RussianForeignMinistry #AntiWesternSentiment #RussianNarrative #EuropeanImperialism #LavrovMacronMerz ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.125~
