Trump Slams France’s Ban on Le Pen, Calls It ‘Lawfare’ to Silence Political Opposition | Details

Trump has come out strongly in defense of French far-right leader Marine Le Pen after a Paris court barred her from holding political office for five years.

Trump accused European leftists of using “lawfare” to silence opposition, calling the conviction a “witch hunt.” The court found Le Pen guilty of misusing EU funds, a charge she denies as politically motivated.

Trump warned the move was “bad for France” and an attack on free speech.

Le Pen can no longer challenge Macron in the 2027 French presidential elections.

Who Is Vladimir Medinsky? Putin Skips Ukraine Talks In Istanbul, Names Nationalist Aide As Lead

Vladimir Putin will not attend the high-stakes Russia-Ukraine talks in Istanbul. Instead, Kremlin aide and nationalist figure Vladimir Medinsky will lead the Russian delegation, reigniting debate over Russia's negotiation sincerity. Medinsky, known for his controversial historical views, previously led failed 2022 talks with Ukraine. Ukrainian President Zelensky insists only Putin’s presence signals real intent. He refuses to meet lower-tier officials. Meanwhile, Trump is also expected to skip the event. The absence of top leaders adds doubt over whether Istanbul's negotiations will yield any breakthrough in the ongoing war. #VladimirMedinsky #PutinUkraineTalks #RussiaUkraineWar #IstanbulPeaceTalks #UkraineCrisis #PutinNotAttending #RussiaDelegation #ZelenskyPutin #UkraineNegotiations #RussiaPeaceTalks #MedinskyHistory #TrumpSkipsTalks #UkraineWar2025 #PeaceInUkraine #PutinSkipsTalks #UkraineConflict #RussiaNews #ZelenskyStatement #KremlinDirective #Geopolitics2025 ~HT.318~ED.102~

‘Turkey Talks DOOMED without Trump and Putin’ Says Rubio | Talks Stall Amid Global Frustration

Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the Ukraine peace talks in Turkey are doomed without Trump and Putin. As leaders from Russia and Ukraine land in separate cities across Türkiye, confusion reigns over when talks will even begin. With neither Putin nor Trump in attendance, Rubio warns of a diplomatic deadlock. Trump, aboard Air Force One, echoed the sentiment, saying peace requires a direct face-off with Putin. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy slammed the Kremlin for its absence and disrespected Erdoğan, deepening tensions.

Full Speech: JD Vance Slams 'Far-Left Prosecutors' In BOLD Speech | ‘Zero Tolerance For...’

Vice President JD Vance delivered a powerful speech at the National Police Memorial Service in Washington, D.C., vowing unwavering support for law enforcement. Standing before top Trump officials, Vance took aim at “far-left prosecutors,” “weak-willed politicians,” and the rise in lawlessness. He declared the Trump administration would never abandon police officers or the memory of fallen heroes. With National Police Week underway, Vance promised pro-police policies, zero tolerance for anti-cop rhetoric, and a crackdown on violent crime and open border chaos. A resounding moment of the administration’s law-and-order stance. #JDVance #DonaldTrump #PoliceMemorial #NationalPoliceWeek #LawAndOrder #BackTheBlue #ProPolice #FarLeftProsecutors #BlueLivesMatter #ZeroTolerance #BorderSecurity #PoliceSupport #Trump2025 #PoliceHeroes #DefendThePolice #CrimeCrisis #ICE #DEA #USMarshals #FallenOfficers ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.122~

French PM Bayrou Slams Trump’s ‘Free Le Pen’ Call as Political Interference in National Affairs

French PM Francois Bayrou has called out Donald Trump for interfering in France’s domestic affairs after the former US president urged Paris to “free” Marine Le Pen. Le Pen, convicted for misusing EU funds, was sentenced to four years in prison and banned from office. Trump labeled her a victim of political persecution. Bayrou warned of rising “illiberal” forces undermining democracy worldwide. As tensions rise, Trump’s remarks have sparked diplomatic unease ahead of France’s 2027 presidential race and fueled debates over foreign influence in sovereign judicial decisions. #Trump #MarineLePen #FrancePolitics #FrenchPM #Bayrou #PoliticalInterference #TruthSocial #EUFunds #RightWing #LePenVerdict #WitchHuntClaims #USFranceTensions #FreeLePen #DemocracyDebate #RuleOfLaw #ParisCourt #ElectionBan #2027Elections #TrumpInEurope #NationalRally Also Read White House Slammed For 'Dehumanising' Deportation Video Set To Pop Anthem: 'Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/white-house-slammed-for-dehumanising-deportation-video-set-to-pop-anthem-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-n-4116107.html?ref=DMDesc UK PM Starmer Signals Break From Globalisation Amid Trump's Tariff War: ‘We Need Different Path' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/uk-pm-starmer-signals-break-from-globalisation-amid-trumps-tariff-war-we-need-different-path-4116069.html?ref=DMDesc Protesters Rally Against President Trump, Musk In 'Hands Off!'

‘Kiev has no capacity...’ | Macron STUNS Ukraine with a brutal assessment

French President Emmanuel Macron has delivered a stark assessment of the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war, stating bluntly that Ukraine cannot retake territories already lost to Russia. Acknowledging that even Ukrainian authorities are aware of this, Macron emphasized the need for a united international effort to support Ukraine—without escalating into World War III. Calling for peace, he said Ukraine must be positioned strongly for negotiations and confirmed that Ukraine will not be joining NATO. Instead, Macron proposed a deployment of reassurance forces by willing allies, stationed far from the frontlines. The comments come ahead of planned peace talks in Istanbul, which remain deadlocked over Ukraine’s refusal to give up its territorial claims, including Crimea. #Macron #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #France #PeaceTalks #UkraineCrisis #Crimea #WorldWar3 #Geopolitics #MacronStatement #UkraineRussiaWar #BreakingNews #FranceForeignPolicy #NATO #Peacekeeping #Ceasefire #MacronOnUkraine #UkraineUpdate #GlobalSecurity #RussiaWarning #IstanbulTalks #UkraineTerritories #MacronSpeech #MilitarySupport #UkraineAllies #UkraineNegotiations #UkraineNews #RussiaUkrainePeace #SolidarityWithUkraine #UkraineNotInNATO Also Read Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Army Gets Russia-Made Igla-S Missiles :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indian-army-gets-russia-made-igla-s-missiles-4143017.html?ref=DMDesc Pahalgam Attack: Scared Pakistan Seeks China, Russia's Intervention For Investigation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pahalgam-attack-scared-pakistan-seeks-china-russias-intervention-for-investigation-4136899.html?ref=DMDesc
