France Opens Criminal Case Against Paraguayan Senator Over Racist Posts About Mbappé

French prosecutors are investigating racist remarks a Paraguayan senator posted about Kylian Mbappé after Paraguay's World Cup loss to France. The posts mocked his Cameroonian heritage. France criminalizes incitement to racial hatred regardless of who posts it. Enforcing this against a foreign elected official remains unclear, but the move reflects how states are addressing racialized political speech.
