Macron to EU colleagues: Stop buying American, buy European

French President Emmanuel Macron wants to lead a charm offensive to convince EU countries to stop buying U.S. defense equipment and buy French and European instead.

Macron, who has been calling for years to direct defense spending toward EU products, said he wants to convince other European countries that are currently "buying American" to shift to local options.

"My intention is to go and convince European states that have become accustomed to buying American," he said on Saturday in an interview with several French media including Nice-Matin and Le Parisien.

  1. French Prime Minister François Bayrou believes that Europe must prepare for a potential trade war with the United States.

    "We need to seriously prepare not only to respond to military threats but also to a trade war. The introduction of customs duties threatens both our products and American ones," Bayrou stated on the France Info TV channel.
