Contacted by email by Fato ou Fake, the press office of the French Ministry of the Armed Forces advised that the full transcript of the statement be consulted, available on the ministry’s official website. The original material deals with the budget of the Armed Forces, European defense in the face of the war between Russia and Ukraine and participation in the military exercise in Greenland. There was no mention of Trump or Putin. The misleading recording shows signs of manipulation in the audio, which does not follow the movements of Macron’s lips. To find the origin of the video used out of context, Fato ou Fake used the InVID tool and fragmented the material into several frames (static images). Then, he selected one of these “photos” and did a reverse search on Google Lens. This research serves to verify what content had previously been reproduced by reliable sources – and in what context. The result identified the full video of the speech, available on the YouTube channel of the French newspaper “Le Parisien”.
