“Absurd Conspiracy”: French Media Rushes To\u00a0Quash Claims Macron, Merz &\u00a0Starmer Caught Hiding Cocaine On Kiev-Bound Train<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

French media are on the defensive after journalists unexpectedly entered a train carriage carrying French President Emmanuel Macron, along with the German and British Prime Ministers, en route to Kyiv on Friday, which sparked a firestorm on social media with allegations of cocaine use by the top leaders<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“They [social media users] cite videos that allegedly show Emmanuel Macron discreetly hiding a strange white bag on the table<\/strong>,”\u00a0the French daily newspaper Lib\u00e9ration<\/a> said, adding, “And according to these accounts, Friedrich Merz even had a straw to use to take drugs. These conspiracy accusations fit with the narrative that Western elites are depraved and approach war unconsciously<\/strong>.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

When reporters entered the room, Macron was meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on a train ride from Poland to Ukraine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

NEW: French media is shutting down social media rumors that French President Emmanuel Macron was caught with a bag of cocaine during a trip to Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Lib\u00e9ration rushed to the defense of Macron and the Western leaders:<\/p>\n

Several internet users, sharing posts favorable to Vladimir Putin<\/strong>, have claimed that the three men had used cocaine together. “Coke will decide World War III,” one of them feigned concern.<\/em><\/p>\n

Lib\u00e9ration even suggested:<\/p>\n

High-quality photographs and videos, such as those taken by the AFP or AP news agencies , show that the mysterious bag of white powder is actually a handkerchief<\/strong> rolled into a ball that was placed on the table before Keir Starmer arrived and the cameras entered the booth, where Macron and Merz were already seated. The straw looks more like a stirrer or a toothpick<\/strong>, which the German chancellor is said to have been fiddling with. This explains why the two leaders do not want these objects immortalized in the images of the meeting.<\/em><\/p>\n

Maybe Lib\u00e9ration’s defense of Macron and the other Western leaders is accurate \u2014 perhaps it really was just a ‘handkerchief’ and a ‘toothpick.’ But the real red flag<\/strong> is the leaders’ abrupt and suspicious behavior as they scrambled to cover up whatever was on the table when journalists unexpectedly entered the train carriage<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cocaine allegations come as no surprise<\/strong>, considering the leaders were inbound to visit this guy…\u00a0<\/p>\n

This song seems appropriate…\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Cocaine or no cocaine. The optics here are not good.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
