The French president countered Trump’s claims of support.
The President of the United States of America , Donald Trump, stated that all aid provided to Ukraine by European countries is allegedly given in the form of loans.
Thus, during a meeting in Washington, Trump tried to draw the attention of journalists to the fact that European donors are getting all their funds back. French President Emmanuel Macron disagreed with the American leader’s statement and interrupted his colleague.
“To be fair, we paid 60% of the total amount. It was the same as with the US – loans, guarantees, grants. We provided real money, so that it is clear,” Macron emphasized.
He also mentioned Russia’s frozen assets in Europe. We are talking about $230 billion:
“But it’s not as collateral for a loan, because it’s not ours. If, in the end of negotiations with Russia, they are ready to give it to us, that’s great. In the end, it will be a loan, and Russia will pay for it.”
