French President Emmanuel Macron "interrupted" US President Donald Trump during a White House press briefing while Trump was speaking on Ukraine funding.
Macron corrected Trump's claim that Europe only loans money to Ukraine, stating, "No, in fact, we paid 60% of the total effort." The moment quickly went viral, with some praising Macron's "fact-checking" and others calling it "impolite." The exchange highlights tensions over Ukraine aid and the US-Europe relationship.
Monday’s meeting was Trump and Macron’s first in-person encounter since December 2024.
