President Donald Trump criticized French President Emmanuel Macron on Nov. 13, in response to comments made by Macron during a weekend of events commemorating the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I.

Macron suggested in a speech in Paris that Europe should build an army to protect against China, Russia, and the United States. The French president also suggested, in an apparent swipe at Trump, that nationalism is a “betrayal of patriotism.”
