President Donald Trump left little doubt Monday that the United States was upending world politics despite a personal appeal from French President Emmanuel Macron.

Macron, who built a personal relationship with Trump during their first terms, became the first European leader to visit the White House after the Trump administration turned foreign policy upside down by negotiating with Russia while sidelining European leaders and Ukraine in peace talks. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will follow closely on Macron’s heels when he visits Trump at the White House on Thursday.
