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 âformer instinctsâ of conquest and domination, drawing chilling comparisons between todayâs political climate and Nazi-era atrocities.
He further stated that âGerman and Ukrainian Nazis are united by their attitudes toward those they want to enslave,â claiming that just as some âburned Jews,â others now âburn Russians.â Lavrovâs 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 Russiaâs narrative of positioning itself as a bulwark against Western hegemony and what it calls modern-day fascism.

During the NATO summit, Turkish President ErdoÄan and French President Macron shared another tense and awkward moment. When Macron stood in front of the Turkish flag, ErdoÄan subtly but firmly pulled him to his right sideâcausing visible discomfort. This follows a previous viral incident in Tirana where ErdoÄan grabbed Macronâs finger during a handshake. Netizens are calling it a quiet power move from ErdoÄan, adding to Macronâs recent streak of bizarre public momentsâincluding a face-shove from his wife in Vietnam. Their uneasy diplomacy continues to stir global curiosity.

French President Emmanuel Macron has publicly condemned U.S. airstrikes on Iranâs nuclear sites, saying they violate international law and undermine years of nuclear diplomacy. Macron stressed that while France opposes Iranâs nuclear ambitions, regime change must come from withinânot by force. He also denounced the Israeli strike on Evin Prison, which endangered foreign nationals, including two French citizens. His rebuke signals a growing rift with Donald Trump, warning that military escalation could destabilize the region irreversibly.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has accused Quad nations â the US, Japan, and Australia â of dragging India into a de facto military alliance, despite Delhiâs 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 Moscowâs shifting strategic focus in Asia.
