Trump baselessly slams Starmer, Macron for failing to help Ukraine – POLITICO

French President Emmanuel Macron and U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer "haven't done anything" to end the war in Ukraine, U.S. President Donald Trump claimed on Friday.

Trump's assertion, which isn't supported by official data, comes days before the two European leaders are due to make separate visits to the White House.

In an interview with Fox News Radio, Trump slammed the French and U.K. leaders for not spending enough to support Kyiv since Russian President Vladimir Putin's all-out invasion of Ukraine in early 2022, amid rising tensions between the European Union and the U.S. over ongoing negotiations to end the war.
