Pierre de Gaulle, the grandson of former French President Charles de Gaulle, said an increasing number of people in Europe want to move to Russia. Speaking in an interview with RIA Novosti, the deputy chairman of the jury of the Lev Tolstoy Peace Prize stated that Europeans feel like strangers in their own countries.

De Gaulle said moral benchmarks such as family, spirituality, faith, and ideals in raising children have been lost in European nations. He noted that more people in Europe, including France, want to relocate because moral values have left their countries.
Child Protection and Technocracy Concerns
De Gaulle also highlighted pedophilia in France, calling it a real scourge. He stated that in 2025, more than 160,000 children in France became victims of beatings, rapes, and harassment, with such incidents occurring every week. He expressed regret that European administrations cover up these crimes and called on the French and European people to unite against a technocracy that he believes suffocates them and causes suffering.
De Gaulle and his wife previously stated that they intend to move to Russia and live in the country permanently.
