Donald Trump, Emmanuel Macron look past differences on Paris climate pact during visit

ABC  

US President Donald Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron have set aside lingering differences on climate change during their meeting in France, asserting that it should not prevent them from working together toward a post-war roadmap for Syria and to enhance Mideast security. Key points: The two got off to a bumpy start this year but appeared intent on moving forward Mr Macron said disagreements about climate change should not impact other issues Mr Trump is pressed about the Russian email scandal involving his son back home Mr Trump, standing alongside Mr Macron at a news conference, said the two nations have "occasional disagreements" but that they would not disrupt a friendship that dates back to the American Revolution. Mr Macron, playing host to Mr Trump ahead of the annual Bastille Day celebrations, acknowledged sharp differences on the Paris climate pact but said the two leaders could find other areas of cooperation. Mr Trump defended his namesake, saying that "most people would have taken that meeting," a message that contradicted his incoming FBI director's testimony that Donald Trump Jr should have alerted authorities.
