Macron and Trump Discuss European Peacekeepers in Ukraine
ai generated text
French President Emmanuel Macron met with US President Donald Trump at the White House on the third anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Macron stated that the common objective was to build a solid and longstanding peace in Ukraine. In Kyiv, European leaders visited Independence Square for a round table meeting with President Zelensky.
Europe must take that central role in ensuring long-term security of Ukraine, which they want to do.
That is the most beautiful language… I have no idea what he said, but it is the most elegant, beautiful language.
Trump and Macron would also discuss the thorny issue of trade with the European Union, with the US president threatening sweeping tariffs against the bloc.
Being strong and having deterrence capacities is the only way to ensure that [a deal] will be respected. And I insisted on that.
There is good reason for President Trump to re-engage with President Putin.
No, in fact, to be frank, we paid — we paid 60 percent of the total effort. And it was through, like the U.S., loans, guarantee, grants, and we provided real money, to be clear.
After everything that they have suffered, after everything that they have fought for, there could be no discussion about Ukraine without Ukraine, and the people of Ukraine must have a long-term secure future.
Let's be clear: a free and sovereign Ukraine is not only in the European interest.
The autocrats around the world are watching very carefully.
We are proud that the Security Council has done just that, just now, in passing an historic landmark agreement on Ukraine, the first such in three years.
European countries are hamstrung by their inability to exert military power, the only currency that holds any sway in deterring Russia and the US.
No world leader handles Trump as well as Macron. Friendly but firm, respectful but not afraid to stand up to him when he thinks he's wrong. And Trump respects him for it.
