A lighthearted moment stole the spotlight at the Sharm el-Sheikh Peace Summit in Egypt on Monday, October 13, when Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan playfully told Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to quit smoking. “I saw you coming down from the plane. You look great. But I have to make you stop smoking,” Erdogan joked, prompting Meloni to respond with a laugh, “I know, I know. I don’t want to kill somebody.” French President Emmanuel Macron, standing nearby, couldn’t hold back his amusement and burst into laughter, calling the request “impossible.” The brief exchange, captured on video and quickly going viral, was widely shared on social media as a rare, candid moment among world leaders.
