French President Emmanuel Macron has urged EU countries to establish a unified response following Donald Trump's victory, cautioning against an "every man for himself" approach. Macron emphasized the importance of a stronger, more united Europe that can maintain cooperation with the United States while defending its own interests and values.
Following the election results, Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz held an urgent call to align their positions. Macron stated, "In this new context for us, we will work for a more united, stronger, and sovereign Europe." Scholz echoed this sentiment, highlighting Germany's longstanding partnership with the U.S. and affirming a continued commitment to mutual prosperity and freedom.
Earlier, Scholz congratulated Trump on his election success, reaffirming Germany’s intent to collaborate closely with the U.S. under the new administration.
