French President Emmanuel Macron intends to tell US President Donald Trump that it’s in the joint interest of Americans and Europeans not to be weak in the face of Russian leader Vladimir Putin amid US-led negotiations to end the war in Ukraine.
Macron will travel to Washington to meet with Trump, and plans to persuade him that US interests and Europeans’ interests are the same, emphasizing the need for a peace deal that includes Ukrainians and Europeans, and warning that letting Russia take over Ukraine would be unstoppable.
