Emmanuel Macron: Talks with Donald Trump 'obvious and indispensable'
French President Emmanuel Macron said it is "obvious and indispensable" to have exchanges with US President Donald Trump as the two leaders were set to try to find common ground on security, defence and other issues.
Mr Macron spoke at a news conference following a meeting in Paris with German Chancellor Angela Merkel who, like Mr Macron, was deeply disappointed in Mr Trump's recent decision to withdraw the US from a global agreement to combat climate change.
