Macron and Trump disagree over aid and securing a lasting peace after US president says Russian counterpart has ‘no problem’ with European forces in Ukraine
Emmanuel Macron, the French president, has warned Donald Trump against a “surrender” of Ukraine as the US president said Russia’s leader Vladimir Putin “wants to make a deal” that could include European peacekeepers.
The transatlantic rift over the war was apparent on Monday as Trump and Macron – the first European leader to visit the White House since Trump regained power – disagreed over aid and efforts to secure a lasting peace in Ukraine.
