Macron warns US under Trump is 'turning away' from allies

French president Emmanuel Macron warned the US under Donald Trump was “breaking free from international rules” and “gradually turning away” from some of its allies.

Echoing the criticism from his German counterpart (11:30), he warned about the increasingly assertive US policy, reports The Guardian.

“Multilateral institutions are functioning less and less effectively,” Macron said in his annual speech to French ambassadors, as reported by AFP.

We are living in a world of great powers with a real temptation to divide up the world.
