Germany has officially denied Ukraineâs latest request for Taurus cruise missiles, citing NATO obligations and escalation concerns. Defense Minister Boris Pistorius confirmed the long-range system is âoff the tableâ despite intensified Russian airstrikes. Berlin also ruled out sending additional Patriot systems due to depleted reserves. Moscow had warned that Taurus deliveries would destroy ties with Berlin. As Ukraineâs casualties mount and Western weapon supplies dwindle, fears grow of deeper NATO involvement and a potential escalation into a wider regional conflict.

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.
