China unveiled a 12-point plan advocating urgent Russia-Ukraine peace talks and explicitly opposing the use or threat of nuclear weapons, coinciding with the war's first anniversary.
Russia welcomed the initiative but demanded recognition of its territorial gains, while Ukraine's Zelensky expressed a willingness to engage, planning to meet Xi Jinping.
Western powers, including the US and NATO, voiced strong skepticism, questioning China's neutrality due to its close ties with Moscow, while the UN cautiously supported the nuclear non-proliferation clause.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
