Trump Vs Zelensky, From the Screen to the Streets, Gen Z protests from Paris to Dehli • FRANCE 24

In India, the Cockroach movement felt the crushing boot of the state this week. Thousands of Gen Z protesters were rounded up and detained in sports stadiums and community halls turned into makeshift detention centres, while the movement’s founder, Abhijeet Dipke, was arrested on arrival. A mass demonstration over alleged voter fraud was effectively crushed before it could begin.And Abdijeet has been detained again today Narendra Modi’s government says the measures were necessary to protect civilians in the capital. But he now faces accusations of choosing repression over democracy, with the UN Human Rights Office urging authorities to respect the right to peaceful assembly.    It’s been a week of blame games and accusations of betrayal in Ukraine with President Zelensky speaking of his personal hurt at President Trump’s decision to make a diesel deal with the Kremlin ahead of the US Mid term elections calling it “weak”, suggesting Trump had chosen, “the other side”. Trump meanwhile made clear he wants Zelensky replaced, and warned him against striking Russian refineries AND announced an energy ceasefire, declaring it to have been agreed by both sides but which went nowhere. President Zelensky continued to search for solidarity and a solution in Europe.   It’s been a week of blame games and accusations of betrayal in Ukraine with President Zelensky speaking of his personal hurt at President Trump’s decision to make a diesel deal with the Kremlin ahead of the US Mid term elections calling it “weak”, suggesting Trump had chosen, “the other side”.
