Macron’s BIG MESSAGE To China| Begins Southeast Asia Tour In Vietnam, Aims To Rival US And China
French President Emmanuel Macron has landed in Vietnam for the first leg of a bold Southeast Asia tour aimed at positioning France as a third force between China and the US.
Visiting Vietnam, Indonesia, and Singapore, Macron seeks energy deals, nuclear partnerships, and influence in Indo-Pacific geopolitics.
He will promote fair trade, sovereignty, and regional peace while countering growing perceptions of Western double standards over conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine.
Macron is set to address the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore and meet key ASEAN leaders during the six-day diplomatic push.

India has crossed 7,000 active COVID-19 cases, with Kerala reporting the highest spike and three new deaths. The XFG variant, a sub-lineage of Omicron with strong immune evasion, has been detected across the country, raising global alarm. Originating in Canada, the variant carries four spike protein mutations. Globally, SARS-CoV-2 activity is rising, especially in South-East Asia and Eastern Mediterranean regions, with test positivity rates matching last year’s peak. WHO continues to monitor the spread amid poor ICU and hospitalization data from heavily affected regions.

A limestone quarry in Indonesia’s West Java province collapsed on Friday, killing at least 13 people and injuring a dozen others. Authorities fear more may still be buried under the rubble.

Governor Dedi Mulyadi ordered the permanent closure of this and four similar unsafe mining sites. This is the quarry’s second collapse this year, highlighting growing concerns over mining safety in the Southeast Asian archipelago.

French President Emmanuel Macron’s arrival in Vietnam for a week-long Southeast Asia tour sparked a social media frenzy after a video showed his wife, Brigitte Macron, pushing his face as he exited the plane. The moment, captured on camera, showed Macron looking surprised as Brigitte remained behind the doorway and avoided his offered arm. The Elysée described it as playful and blamed pro-Russian accounts for fueling conspiracy theories. Macron’s tour aims to position France as a balancing power amid growing U.S.-China rivalry in the region.

China has lashed out at U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth following his remarks at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, where he warned that China could imminently use military force against Taiwan. Beijing condemned the speech as provocative and divisive, accusing Hegseth of inciting bloc confrontation and pushing a Cold War mentality. China's foreign ministry dismissed the U.S. accusations as defamatory and asserted that only Washington deserved the label of a hegemonic power.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has accused Quad nations — the US, Japan, and Australia — of dragging India into a de facto military alliance, despite Delhi’s stated focus on economic ties. Speaking at a Eurasian security forum, Lavrov warned of coordinated naval drills aimed at militarizing Quad beyond its original scope. He also pushed to revive the dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral platform, asserting that Western powers are deliberately stoking Indo-China tensions by reframing the region as "Indo-Pacific" with anti-China goals. His remarks signal Moscow’s shifting strategic focus in Asia.

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a dramatic warning of potential war with China, yet claimed the U.S. seeks no conflict. In a speech filled with paradoxes and Pentagon code, Hegseth promised “peace through strength — seen and unseen, overt and covert.” He emphasized that the U.S. will not humiliate or subjugate China but is fully prepared for confrontation. The remarks deepen concerns over rising tensions in the Indo-Pacific, suggesting a looming power struggle between Washington and Beijing conducted in part through shadowy, undisclosed means.

Hegseth urged Asian allies to increase defense spending and prepare for a potential regional conflict. He affirmed Trump’s Indo-Pacific focus and emphasized consequences for any Chinese aggression.

Tensions in the South China Sea have escalated dramatically as China deployed two H-6 nuclear-capable bombers to Woody Island in the Paracel chain — their first appearance there since 2020. Satellite images confirm the aircraft's presence between May 17 and 23, alongside Y-20 transport planes and a KJ-500 early warning aircraft, signaling a broader Chinese air operation. The strategic move comes just ahead of the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, where global defense leaders, including France’s Emmanuel Macron and U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, are set to speak.
