Macron got no promises on Ukraine but called his meeting with Trump a ‘turning point’

Associated Press  

WASHINGTON — French President Emmanuel Macron traveled to Washington seeking to convince U.S. President Donald Trump to stand by Europe’s side in his talks with Russia about ending the war in Ukraine. Following Monday’s meeting, Macron praised Trump’s move towards Putin in an interview on Fox News, saying it may lead to a truce between Russia and Ukraine in the coming weeks. “We want peace swiftly, but we don’t want an agreement that is weak,” Macron said earlier in a joint news conference with Trump. Any deal with Russia, Macron insisted, must be able to be “assessed, checked and verified.” Asked at the news conference by an Associated Press reporter what makes Trump believe he can trust Putin in negotiations about Ukraine, Trump answered, “I may be wrong, but I believe he wants to make a deal.” Macron is known for his bold diplomatic moves.
