United States should not ditch Iran deal without new accord: Emmanuel Macron

‘What we cherish is at fate, what we love is in danger.’

. “What we cherish is at fate, what we love is in danger, we have no choice but to prevail and together we shall prevail”.

“We have worked together for the universal ideals of liberty, tolerance, and equal rights”.

“We signed it at the initiative of the United States“, he said, “we should not abandon it without having something more substantial instead”.

Belin thinks that Macron didn’t want to single out Trump on that point, but did want to say that “the winds are blowing in that direction for everybody” and that both countries should “try to counter this general global evolution”.

“With unchecked greenhouse gas emissions, plunging biodiversity and increasing ocean pollution, “we are killing our planet”.

After showing a video of Macron railing against “nationalism” and “isolationism” – which Colbert equated to an insult to Trump’s America first policy – Colbert said, “Oooh!”

Mr Macron said such policies were a threat to global prosperity.

“We’ve nearly completed the task (of defeating ISIS) and will be making a decision very quickly in coordination with others in the area, as to what we will do”, Trump said at the time. “We should follow them”.

That could include new European Union sanctions on Iran, diplomats told Reuters.

He said the U.S. had invented multilateralism and now needed to reinvent it to create a new 21st Century world order.

“This requires more than ever the United States involvement”, he said.

The Europeans appear to be hoping they can sell Trump on the idea of broader regional settlement with Iran that would complement, rather than replace, the existing nuclear deal.

“Our objective is clear”.

In one of his final appearances of the trip, he expressed pessimism about the future of the Iran nuclear deal, saying he believed Trump may end up pulling out of the agreement. Not in 10 years.

Maybe Colbert needs a week off to unplug from the news, calm down his Trump hysteria – and really reflect on how to say something original beyond childish and hollow insults about the president.

“Everybody said ‘This guy is going to get us into nuclear war, ‘ but let me tell you, the nuclear war would have happened if you had weak people”.

Macron stops to take a selfie with Texas Democrat Sheila Jackson Lee, after addressing the US Congress. “Let us not create new wars on the other side”.

“We have disagreements between the United States and France“. That’s it? A bunch of heap shots at the president of the United States for a few laughs from the usual audience? “That is why we can not say we should get rid of it like that”, he said.

French President Emmanuel Macron suggested during a state visit to Washington this week that there could be a way to move toward a “new agreement” that would address Trump’s concerns.

DONALD TRUMP hailed his “very special relationship” with Emmanuel Macron when they met at the White House yesterday.

“I always said there is the JCPOA but we needed to add three pillars post 2025“. While he was still “advocating” retention of the deal, he said, “I’m not a masochist”.

But as he wraps up a three-day visit to Washington, Macron also hinted at his profound disagreement with Trump’s decision to pull the USA from the worldwide accord to limit the increase in average global temperature to less than 2°C during this century. “It’s the same thing in all families”.
