Summary

French President Emmanuel Macron publicly corrected Donald Trump in the Oval Office after Trump falsely claimed Europe was only “loaning” money to Ukraine.

Macron clarified that Europe provided 60% of Ukraine’s wartime aid as grants and guarantees, not loans. Trump smirked but did not contest the correction.

The exchange came as Trump softened his stance on Russia, including voting against a UN resolution for Russia’s withdrawal from Ukraine.

    Im sorry but Macron its not an example for anyone, look at France, its a ticking bomb, Paris its an immigration nightmare with a lot of social and criminal problems. They cant talk to anyone, Europe is imploding, Germany its in a 3 years hot streak with recession, France is what it is, Portugal and Spain are the new tourism whores, the rest of the countries are trying to hide for all this. Big plus that at least Americans voted for Trump but Europeans didnt voted for Ursula von der Leyen, the grass its not greener here

      Saying Paris is an “immigration nightmare” tells us more about yourself than the state of France. And I’m saying this as someone actually living there

      Thanks for enlightening me! Here I was walking and having fund the past few months in Paris, enjoying what a world-class capital can offer. And sadly enough I have not witnessed a single issue related to immigration. Silly me!

      You should evaluate who you are getting your talking points from and whether it’s ethical to spread such (mis)information without at least verifying it for yourself.

      You think its a plus that we voted in Trump? You’re gonna get laughed out of here and probably down voted to all helll. My recommendation to you if you arent a bot, is to find a different website, bcz this isn’t the one for you.
