In a blunt statement posted Sunday, Donald Trump said the ongoing riots in France are being driven by “hate‑filled hearts” of foreign arrivals. He insisted that France’s historic legacy is at risk and called for immediate border closures and stronger security measures.
The post also highlighted the recent attacks on public buildings, including the arson of the Limoges City Hall and graffiti‑covered protests in Marseille. French officials reported more than 1,800 arrests across the country and a death caused by heart failure during a demonstration in Paris. Trump framed the incidents as a warning of what could happen if European nations do not adopt stricter immigration controls.
