EU Probes German Drone Attack Blame, Norway Crowns New King

European Union foreign ministers convened to discuss a response to a recent drone attack in Leipzig, which Germany has formally attributed to Moscow. EU foreign policy chief stated the incident bore the hallmarks of state-sponsored terrorism, aiming to divide Europe and undermine support for Ukraine. The UK's foreign secretary also participated, emphasizing that such Russian attempts to sow discord would fail.

In parallel, Norway witnessed a significant royal transition as King Haakon VIII was sworn into office. He pledged to uphold the 1814 constitution with his daughter, Crown Princess Ingrid Alexandra, present. The ceremony followed the recent death of his father, King Harald V, with mourners paying their respects. These events highlight ongoing geopolitical tensions and significant internal developments within Europe.
