Emmanuel Macron dismissed Trump’s claim that peace in Gaza is secured. Not a single humanitarian corridor had been reopened, the French president said. The world, he said, was watching a spectacle that should shame everyone. Reuters carried it from the Assembly.
The World desk files the diplomacy, not the strike. An Israeli raid in Khan Younis is a different wire. This note is the hall: a host who says the war is won, and an ally who says the corridor is still shut.
A spectacle that should shame everyone.
The World desk files Wednesday as it is: one sentence from Paris, and a corridor that, on Macron’s account, has not opened.
