France 24

Who to prevent a regional war.

Today in the France 24 debate, we're looking at that specter of return to civil war.

With us from Berlin, Jalal Kedachou Biru, Senior Analyst for East Africa at the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Conflict Monitor.

Akhled, thank you for being with us here on France 24.

Thank you for having me.

From Washington, Mea Zagidev-Geberbedin, executive director of the Harambee Collective, which advocates for reproductive rights and against gender-based violence in Tigray and all of East Africa.

But that, as you mentioned, did not stop the Senegalese men's national football team from traveling there on Tuesday afternoon to play against Ethiopia.

I spoke to a source in Bayadar, the capital of Amhara, where that football match took place, who told me that he heard loud explosions on both the day before the match, so Monday, and also during the day of the match on Tuesday.

And we're pleased to welcome Ian Bremmer, president and founder of the Eurasia Group Risk Consultancy and GZERO Media.

Thanks for being with us here on France 24.

Happy to

join you.

AND THE MORE THAT COUNTRIES REALIZE THAT AND THE LESS TIME THAT TRUMP HAS REMAINING IN HIS ADMINISTRATION AND THE MORE HE ALSO SAYS THINGS THAT GIVE EXCUSES TO HIS OWN REPUBLICANS WHO HAVE LONGER TERMS IN OFFICE REMAINING THAN HE DOES TO JUMP SHIP, THE MORE IT WILL BECOME OBVIOUS TO THOSE AROUND THE WORLD, INCLUDING THE EUROPEANS, THAT TRUMP IS INDEED A LAME DUCK.

AND WE HAVE PASSED PEAK TRUMP IN TERMS OF DISRUPTION ON THE GLOBAL STAGE.

Ian Bremmer, so many thanks for speaking with us here on France 24.

Always good to see you.

He was groomed as an eventual stand-in for the presidential frontrunner before an appeals court earlier this year allowed Le Pen to run despite her corruption conviction.

We'll ask how the accusations land for a party which since the October 7th attacks against Israel has portrayed itself as a rampart defending France's Jewish community against anti-Semitism.

Le Pen's gut reaction Monday was to blast the report by investigative news site Mediapart as a plot, a conspiracy.

We happen to live in an age of conspiracies that flow freely, including, of course, the one that Jews secretly run the world.

So in the end, will Marine Le Pen be any less electable in 2027.

Today in the France 24 debate, we're asking, is it the same French far right of old? With us, Emma-Kate Simons, journalist for the New World News site, also editor of Conspiracy Watch Global.

Tell us what Conspiracy Watch is.

Well, we literally watch and monitor conspiracy theories and disinformation, analyze them and try to in some respects, educate people about the actors and then the kinds of theories they're spreading.

Beyond that private meeting, he drew huge crowds.

How much will this moment be remembered today in the France 24 debate? We're asking, can we call him Leo the Moderate? With us, France 24's Elena Pompei from our Inter-European Digital Reporting Unit.

She's been covering the visit.

How are you?

Your report is out soon on our Enter website.

Andrea Antonio-Ferrardi, thank you for being with us from Rome.

Thanks for joining us in the France 24 debate.

The last one for North America.
