Kaja Kallas, the EU’s new foreign policy chief, has drawn criticism from diplomats for her assertive start.
On her first day, she tweeted from Kyiv:
“The European Union wants Ukraine to win this war.”
Some officials felt the remark overstepped EU consensus.
“She is still acting like a prime minister,” said one diplomat.
Her tough stance on Russia has also raised concerns:
“If you listen to her it seems we are at war with Russia, which is not the EU line.”
Countries like Spain and Italy see her approach as too aggressive.

As the U.S. brokers a fragile Black Sea ceasefire, European nations are exploring the deployment of UN peacekeepers in Ukraine to monitor future agreements. While no plan is formal yet, momentum is growing.
But any mission would require UN Security Council approval — a major hurdle with Russia and China’s veto power.
• Italy and Spain favor a UN-mandated mission over the “coalition of the willing” idea pushed by UK and France.
• Spain remains undecided until more details are clear.
Lacroix emphasized that UN peacekeepers would not guarantee security but would instead observe, report, and liaise between parties to monitor ceasefire compliance.

China Allegedly Hijacked Israeli-Origin Indian Drone
Source: AlphaDefense
Indian drone near the eastern border with China reportedly veered into Chinese-controlled territory, where the PLA briefly took control before returning it.
The UAV, believed to be of Israeli origin, had encrypted systems—yet the PLA allegedly overrode them.
China’s familiarity with Israeli UAV systems dates back to the 1980s, giving it potential insight into vulnerabilities—an edge that may have played a role here.
Indian Army firmly denied the claim, calling it “baseless and factually incorrect.”
“No such incident has taken place.”

French Far-Right Leaders Visit Israel
Jordan Bardella, leader of France’s far-right National Rally (RN), and Marion Maréchal, European MP and niece of Marine Le Pen, visited Israel to attend a conference on combating anti-Semitism—the first official RN visit to Israel.
The visit marks a significant shift for the RN, formerly the National Front (FN), co-founded by Jean-Marie Le Pen, who was repeatedly condemned for anti-Semitic remarks.
Marine Le Pen, who led the party until 2021, has worked to distance it from her father’s legacy and soften its image.
Now under Bardella, the RN is trying to rebrand itself as a defender of the Jewish community and a strong supporter of Israel, particularly in opposition to “Islamist ideology” following the October 7 Hamas attack.
