European leaders waiting to meet with Trump at the White House, look like kids lined up outside of the principal’s office
Publisher’s rating: False
The review found the image purporting to show European leaders queued to meet Trump was AI-generated, not a photograph of the White House meeting. It says official images show the leaders seated together around a conference table.

The person who met with Trump in Alaska was not actually Putin but an impostor.
Publisher’s rating: False
The review says the summit was an official meeting with extensive security and media coverage, and that major outlets confirmed Putin’s personal attendance. It reports that comparisons of summit footage found features consistent with Putin’s known appearance and concludes there is no credible evidence that a body double attended.

欧州首脳が米大統領に待たされている?
Publisher’s rating: 誤り
The review examined an image circulating on X that appeared to show European leaders waiting near the U.S. president’s office. It connected the image to the August 18, 2025, White House meeting involving President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European leaders. The review found that the image was AI-generated, rather than an actual photograph of the leaders waiting there. The scene depicted in the image therefore does not establish that European leaders were made to wait for the president. (S1: “2025年8月18日に欧州首脳が、米ホワイトハウスで、トランプ大統領とウクライナ・ゼレンスキー大統領との会談に参加したことを受け、欧州首脳が大統領の執務室付近で待機しているかのような画像がXで拡散しましたが、実際の写真ではなく、AI生成によるものです。”) The review compared the circulating image with a White House video of the leaders’ event. It noted that the people shown did not match the video’s participants: the image included three women, while the video showed two, and the clothing of the women identified as European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni differed from what they wore in the video. It also described a figure represented only by legs, with no upper body visible. These discrepancies supported the review’s conclusion that the image was not an authentic photograph of the meeting. (S1: “会議の参加者も、米ホワイトハウスが公開した動画の顔ぶれと一致しない。”; “拡散した画像には女性が3人写っているが、ホワイトハウスの動画に、女性はEU・フォンデアライエン委員長とイタリア・メローニ首相の2人しか映っていない。”; “一番手前の仏マクロン大統領に見える男性と、緑の服のEUフォンデアライエン委員長に見える女性の間に、黒いパンツと黒い靴の脚だけが写っている。上半身は写っていない。”) The review also reported that an AI-image detection tool, HIVE MODERATION, assessed a high-resolution version as “99.7%” likely to be AI-generated or a deepfake. Its image-search investigation found the same image posted before the leaders’ meeting: one post was dated August 18 at 2:24 a.m. Japan time, while the Trump–Zelenskyy meeting began after 2 a.m. Japan time on August 19. That timing further undermined the image’s presentation as a photograph from the meeting. (S1: “高精細画像をダウンロードしてAI生成検出ツールHIVE MODERATIONにかけると、「99.7%の確率でAI生成かディープフェイク」と判定された。”; “日本時間の2025年8月18日午前2時24分にXへ投稿され、右が検証対象と同じ画像だ。”; “ホワイトハウスでトランプ大統領とゼレンスキー大統領が首脳会談を行ったのは日本時間19日午前2時過ぎからで”) The review further reports that French outlet TF1 and U.S. fact-checking organization Lead Stories also assessed the image as AI-generated. It cites Ukraine’s Center for Countering Disinformation, which called the image fake and warned that it was being spread as Russian propaganda. (S1: “仏メディア「TF1」や米国のファクトチェック団体「Lead Stories」もAIに見られる画像の乱れなどから「AI生成画像」と判定している” ; “ウクライナ国家安全保障・偽情報対策センターは、この画像をフェイクと指摘したうえで「ヨーロッパの指導者たちの信頼を失墜させ、交渉プロセスへの彼らの参加の意義を貶めるために、ロシアのプロパガンダによって拡散されている」と注意を呼び掛けています”)

Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING
The review says the viral clip is presented out of context: Adhikari was quoting allegations against the BJP before refuting them, not saying that the BJP would not survive in West Bengal unless it changed its attitude. He was defending the party’s stance on voter lists and alleged infiltrators.
