In the gilded enclave of Monaco, where wealth has long sought refuge from the world's turbulence, an explosion on Tuesday shattered that carefully tended peace, wounding three people including a Ukrainian oligarch and sending a suspect fleeing across the French border. The attack — rare in a principality unaccustomed to such violence — has drawn French and Monegasque authorities into urgent cross-border cooperation, while raising the uncomfortable possibility that the geopolitical storms reshaping Eastern Europe have found their way to the Riviera.
