Trump, Macron Discuss Ukraine, Russia and Tariffs: Full Remarks From the Oval Office

Video Description

US President Donald Trump met with French President Emmanuel Macron at the White House. Before their meeting, the two leaders answered questions from reporters about the war in Ukraine, possible tariffs on Europe and the future of NATO. The meeting came after President Trump deepened Washington’s split with allies over Ukraine, withdrawing the US’s condemnation of Russia’s 2022 invasion at the United Nations and among Group of Seven nations.  In New York on Monday, the US and Russia both voted against a European-backed resolution in the UN General Assembly that calls out Moscow’s “full-scale invasion” three years ago to the day, and instead proposed a short alternative that calls for a “swift end” to the conflict, a stark reversal from US policy under President Joe Biden. That comes as the G-7 also struggled to issue a joint statement on the anniversary of the war, after the US opposed language condemning Moscow that echoed previous language from the group, according to people familiar with the matter. -------- Watch Bloomberg Radio LIVE on YouTube Weekdays 7am-6pm ET WATCH HERE: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF Follow us on X: https://twitter.com/BloombergRadio Subscribe to our Podcasts: Bloomberg Daybreak: http://bit.ly/3DWYoAN Bloomberg Surveillance: http://bit.ly/3OPtReI Bloomberg Intelligence: http://bit.ly/3YrBfOi Balance of Power: http://bit.ly/3OO8eLC Bloomberg Businessweek: http://bit.ly/3IPl60i Listen on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with the Bloomberg Business app: Apple CarPlay: https://apple.co/486mghI Android Auto: https://bit.ly/49benZy Visit our YouTube channels: Bloomberg Podcasts: https://www.youtube.com/bloombergpodcasts Bloomberg Television: https://www.youtube.com/@markets Bloomberg Originals: https://www.youtube.com/bloomberg Quicktake: https://www.youtube.com/@BloombergQuicktake
