French President Emmanuel Macron has urged Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to "stay in lane" after she commented on the death of Quentin Deranque, a 23-year-old far-right activist who died from head injuries following an attack by at least six individuals last week in Lyon. The incident occurred on the sidelines of a far-right protest at a university, and a source close to the investigation indicated that most of the 11 detained suspects are affiliated with far-left movements. This tragic event has intensified political tensions in France, particularly with municipal elections scheduled for March and the 2027 presidential race looming, where the far-right National Rally party is considered a strong contender.
