US EditionLula, Macron push for stronger UN to face Trump 'Board of Peace'
Lula and Macron warned that Trump’s $1 billion Board of Peace could undermine the UN Security Council by creating a costly alternative to established peacekeeping mandates.
- On Wednesday, French President Emmanuel Macron at the Élysée Palace pledged defence support and solidarity to Denmark and Greenland, backing increased NATO engagement in the Arctic.
- The move followed a US standoff over Greenland, which French President Emmanuel Macron called a strategic wake-up call for all of Europe, prompting European powers to seek greater cooperation.
- Speaking alongside Mette Frederiksen and Jens-Frederik Nielsen, Macron said France would `be side-by-side` with the `Kingdom of Denmark` after using Greenlandic and Danish, emphasizing Arctic security and sovereignty priorities.
- Mette Frederiksen urged immediate rearmament, saying Europe needed to improve its defences now to reduce reliance on the United States and warned past cuts were a big mistake.
- Macron framed the initiative as part of asserting European sovereignty and Arctic security, noting NATO members committed last year to raise defence and security spending to five percent of economic output.
