Macron criticizes Trump's comments on NATO and Iran

French President Emmanuel Macron said statements from Donald Trump are undermining the NATO alliance by creating doubt about the United States' commitment to it. Macron also argued that Trump's approach to Iran, including suggesting the Strait of Hormuz could be reopened by force, is unrealistic and not serious.

Macron called on European allies to unite and form a common position, particularly on Iran, separate from the U.S. approach. In response, Trump mocked Macron at a White House event.
