France's Macron announces missiles and bombs for Ukraine, suggests he could work with Trump

PARIS (AP) — French President Emmanuel Macron announced plans Tuesday to deliver more long-range cruise missiles as well as bombs to Ukraine and suggested that he'd find ways to work with Donald Trump in the event that he wins another presidency.

“I take the leaders that the people give me,” the French leader said, adding that he is prepared to talk to “anyone” when France's interests are in play.

“I had to do this with President Trump throughout his term,” Macron said. He noted that while they found common cause on some issues, they were divided on others, notably fighting climate change and taxes.

Macron's musings about Trump came at a wide-ranging news conference where he addressed an array of domestic and international issues for more than two hours.
