French President Emmanuel Macron criticized certain world leaders on Wednesday for making what he described as "stupid" remarks regarding recent riots and looting in France. Macron stated that these leaders based their comments on fake artificial intelligence videos, exploiting the civil unrest for their own political advantage.

While the snippets did not explicitly name all targeted officials, reports noted the comments appeared to be aimed at figures including US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The unrest in France had erupted alongside peaceful demonstrations, prompting international reactions that Macron condemned as opportunistic and misinformed.
