Trump attacks Macron over France's immigration policies
Former US President Donald Trump launched a sharp attack on French President Emmanuel Macron, claiming he had warned him years ago about the consequences of immigration policies and the need to close borders to prevent France from losing control of its future. In a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said France faces serious deterioration due to uncontrolled immigration, accusing European politicians of allowing large numbers of migrants in without considering societal impacts. He stated he told Macron during their first meeting, "Close your borders, otherwise that will be the end of France." Trump described France as having been a great country now facing threats to its identity and culture, blaming immigration policies for what he called a decline in conditions there, according to Al Arabiya.
