Macron rebukes Trump and Netanyahu over France unrest as protests spread across Europe

French President Emmanuel Macron has criticized foreign leaders for exploiting France's unrest for political gain, in an apparent rebuke of US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. His comments came as curfews continued and fresh protests loomed over rising living costs. Macron accused unnamed leaders in election mode of making irresponsible remarks about France, referencing figures in West Asia and across the Atlantic. Trump linked the violence to migrants and jihadists, while Netanyahu cited an "invasion of extremist Islam," prompting Macron's pushback ahead of France's presidential election in six months. French authorities maintained nighttime curfews in Paris and other cities, with police deploying massively for Saturday's cost-of-living demonstrations. Unrest also spread to Italy, Belgium, and Greece, where protests over economic pressures intensified, adding to broader European concerns about public discontent and security.
