“President Macron has just suggested that Europe build its own army to protect itself against the United States, China and Russia,” Trump tweeted as Air Force One landed at the international airport. ‘Orly, near Paris.

“Very insulting but perhaps Europe should first pay its share to NATO that the United States subsidize widely!” Added the US president.
