Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama expressed his displeasure with French President Emmanuel Macron for failing to acknowledge a peace deal between Albania and Azerbaijan, a development Rama attributes in part to former U.S. President Donald Trump's prior intervention. The statement, referencing a "peace deal" involving Aliyev, suggests a dispute over the acknowledgment of Trump's role in mediating the conflict. This comment emerged during the reporting window between 11:35:33 AM and 1:07:33 PM UTC on October 3rd, 2025. Rama's remarks, as reported by TWMCLtd on X, indicate that Trump had previously stated he had stopped a war between Albania and Azerbaijan on two occasions. The Albanian Prime Minister's criticism of Macron implies a perceived snub regarding the recent peace agreement. The specific timing of Macron's alleged oversight is not detailed within the provided information. This development follows several other international and security-related events. Earlier on October 3rd, 2025, between 00:45 UTC and 02:45 UTC, approximately fifteen drones were observed flying over the Elsenborn military base near the German border, according to Belgium's Defense Ministry. Separately, three individuals suspected of connections to Hamas and planning attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets were arrested in Germany on Wednesday, an operation involving Mossad and German security forces. In Czechia, a Median poll released October 3rd, 2025, showed the Yes-Pfe party leading with 31% of the vote. Further context from previous reports indicates that the drone incident over the Elsenborn military base is under investigation by Belgium's Defense Ministry. The arrests in Germany were part of a broader Mossad initiative across Europe, which reportedly uncovered weapons caches and additional suspects. The Median poll in Czechia surveyed 1,019 individuals between September 1st and September 25th, 2025, with other parties showing varying levels of support.
