French President Emmanuel Macron warned “threats” and “intimidation” by the United States are not over despite an apparent lull in tensions, urging the EU to treat recent turbulence in the transatlantic relationship as a wake-up call to push through reforms.
In an interview with several publications published on Tuesday, Macron said Europeans need to learn from what he called the “Greenland moment”, and called on European Union leaders to pursue changes that would strengthen its ability to stand up economically to Washington and Beijing.
