Macron and Trump have recently had a tense relationship. In February, the two spoke together at a White House news conference on the peace agreement for Ukraine.
Macron was determined to correct his American counterpart on the amount of help Europe has supplied to Ukraine and to warn Trump against caving in to Vladimir Putin’s demands.
Washington used to speak about their bromance. Every narrative on US-French ties was accompanied by.
Photographs of them smiling and holding hands in the White House Rose Garden. But it has subsequently deteriorated due to the war in Ukraine.
Additionally, at a disastrous meeting with Zelensky at the White House in February, US Vice President JD Vance blasted the Ukrainian leader for seemingly ignoring the hand that fed him.
With Zelensky responding ‘thank you for your support’ to each X post, international leaders, including then-Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Macron, threw their support behind him.
