Clément Molin stated that Donald Trump's announcement regarding the purchase of diesel from Russia revealed the failure of his administration's foreign policy. He wrote that, despite his promises, Trump had not ended any wars, except for those that were already over, and that the war against Iran had failed, particularly politically, damaging the image of the United States and the global economy. Molin also claimed that Trump had repeatedly failed in Ukraine and that the United States had lost a significant part of its influence there. According to him, Trump’s actions towards Canada and Greenland had brought Europeans closer together, while his pivot to Asia had not materialized: it had discontented most of America’s allies in the region and he had been humiliated by China. He also presented the abandonment of Middle Eastern allies as a sign that the United States was no longer seen as a reliable partner by many of their allies. Domestically, Molin considered Trump weakened, believing that he had not improved the daily lives of the Americans who voted for him, particularly due to the war against Iran. He finally wrote that the purchase of diesel from Russia served Vladimir Putin's interests, while adding that Trump might not receive the promised stocks due to Ukrainian strikes and that the operation would have little effect on the global economy. #PolitiqueÉtrangère #Trump #Russie (translated)

Jean-Pierre LIHAU accused an unnamed person of treason and acting as an enemy agent amid the aggression against the nation. He stated that after 18 years in power, this person would seek to repeat their "exploits" of 1997 with Rwandan allies. LIHAU claimed that the Rwandans overthrew J.D. Mobutu in 1997 and placed one of their own at the head of the Congolese army. He also accused them of having assassinated LD Kabila in 2001 and having massacred millions of Congolese. He described the country that Félix Tshisekedi had inherited as infiltrated and destructured, with the M23, over 150 active armed groups, and a socio-economic situation that he termed catastrophic. LIHAU added that the Congolese were no longer fooled and would know how to take their responsibilities without giving in to intimidation. He asserted that the Republic was one and indivisible, that it would rise again, and that justice would catch up with its enemies. #RépubliqueDémocratiqueDuCongo #Justice #Politique (translated)

Jaf used an insulting term towards the Spanish and presented Morocco as their “father,” claiming that Spain had suffered humiliations at the hands of Morocco over the last millennium and would always remain in a subordinate position. To support this claim, he cited the humiliation of Sagrajas in 1086, then the Ifni War in 1957, during which, according to him, Spain had sought the help of France. He also listed the battle of Consuegra — 1097, the battle of Uclés — 1108, the battle of Alarcos — 1195, the battles of Écija and Martos — 1275, the naval battle of Algeciras — 1278, the siege of Algeciras — 1278–1279, and the battle of Gibraltar — 1333. Jaf also mentioned the battle of the Three Kings (Oued al-Makhazin) — 1578, claiming that the Spaniards were then allied with the Portuguese in a crusade against Morocco sanctioned by the Pope. He continued with the battle of Barranco del Lobo — 1909, then several events from 1921: the fight of Abarrán, the siege of Igueriben, the battle of Anoual, the fight of Sidi Dris, the fall of Nador, the fall of Selouane, the fall of Zeluán, the surrender of Dar Quebdani, and the fall of Monte Arruit.
