Macron: The EU has not demonstrated sufficient deterrence, and trade agreements have not met expectations.

Macron: Trump is not afraid of the EU, so we did not get a better trade agreement

After the US and EU reached a trade agreement, French President Macron broke his silence on the 30th, expressing a certain degree of dissatisfaction with the agreement. Macron said in a cabinet meeting that the EU failed to fully utilize its large single market and did not make the US feel enough fear, thereby forcing the US to accept a more favorable agreement for the EU.

"Europe has not yet fully seen itself as a real great power. We need to be feared. And we were not intimidating enough this time," Macron told ministers. He also said that the matter is not over, and Europe will not stop here.
