French President Emmanuel Macron agrees that Europe must join the United States in bearing the “cost and burden of securing the peace” between Russia and Ukraine, President Donald Trump said Monday.
Macron and Trump met on the third anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which Trump said “would never have happened if I was president” in February 2022.
“Europe must take that central role in assuring the long-term security of Ukraine, which they want to do,” Trump said. “And that’s not a very big step. A big step is what’s going to happen over the next few weeks.”
