US President Donald Trump said Wednesday, December 31, that Paris could keep Hollywood star George Clooney after the actor got French citizenship – and took the opportunity to bash France, too.
Trump, whose administration has backed anti-immigration parties in Europe, said key ally France had a "horrendous" problem with crime and immigration.
An official decree seen by AFP on Monday showed that 64-year-old Oscar winner Clooney, his wife Amal Alamuddin Clooney and their two children had become French citizens.
