Trump to Macron : Would you like some nice ISIS fighters? I can give them to you

Donald Trump and Emmanuel Macron traded public barbs over ISIS and defence spending during an awkward news conference ahead of the NATO summit in London, Euronews has reported.

The U.S. president acknowledged he and his French counterpart were having a “minor dispute” over trade tariffs but promised that “we’ll work it out.”

But the two leaders repeatedly contradicted each other over everything from Turkey and terrorism to strategy and missiles as they battled each other in front of the cameras.

“Would you like some nice ISIS fighters? I can give them to you,” Trump said. “You can take every one you want.”

“Let’s be serious,” Macron responded, setting out the other strategic challenges for NATO.

Trump retorted: "That's why he's a great politician because that's one of the greatest non-answers I've ever heard."

Macron said the most critical issues facing NATO were strategic, particularly over Turkey which is fighting the Kurds and buying Russian military hardware that is not compatible with the alliance.

I’m sorry to say we don’t have the same definition of terrorism around the table, They are fighting against those who are fighting with us,” Macron said.
