" #France & #Europe must defend an effective multilateralism because it serves our interests, & those of all who refuse to submit to the rule of #force," #Macron said.
He added that Europe must respond to the challenge of low growth.
"We all have to deliver our own agenda. This includes American overconsumption, Chinese underconsumption & overinvestment, & European underinvestment & lack of competitiveness," he said.

"It's a shift towards a world without rules, where #InternationalLaw is trampled underfoot & where the only #law that seems to matter is that of the strongest, & imperial ambitions are resurfacing,” #Macron said.

@Nonilex Well, acutely the law is still active. The USA is just violating it since the administration morphed into the villain. Ups sorry, supervillain.
#Macron says #US #tariffs aim to 'subordinate Europe'
"Cooperation gives way to relentless competition," Macron said.
"Competition from the #UnitedStates of America through #trade agreements that undermine our export interests, demand maximum concessions, & openly aim to weaken & subordinate #Europe. Combined with an endless accumulation of new tariffs that are fundamentally unacceptable, even more so when they are used as leverage against territorial #sovereignty."

"Protection doesn't mean #protectionism, but today's Europeans are too naive," #Macron added.
"The Europeans are the only ones not to protect their own companies & their own markets, when the other countries don't respect the level playing field."
He called for more Chinese foreign direct investment in #Europe "in some key sectors to contribute to our growth, to transfer some technologies".

#Europe cannot be a ‘#MiserableSlave’ to #Trump, says #Belgium PM
With Trump’s #Greenland provocations, “so many red lines have been crossed” in Europe, PM Bart De Wever said.
“Being a happy vassal is one thing. Being a miserable slave is something else. If you back down now you’re going to lose your #dignity,” he said during a discussion on redefining Europe’s place in the world.

#DeWever said he & #Belgium’s King Philippe will meet with #Trump on Wednesday where they will plan to press for a return to the old #military #alliance between Brussels & Washington.
“We either stand together or we will stand divided, & if we are divided, there is the end of an era, of 80 years of Atlanticism, really drawing to a close,” he said.
