Biden, Macron speak by phone, plan October meeting after diplomatic blow-up
Fox News
President Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron spoke over the phone Wednesday amid diplomatic tensions following the United States’ new trilateral agreement with the United Kingdom and Australia.
Blindsiding France with the deal has been another blow to Biden's assertion that "America is back"; the U.S. president sought to reassure allies in a speech at the United National General Assembly this week.
"The two leaders agreed that the situation would have benefitted from open consultations among allies on matters of strategic interest to France and our European partners," the White House statement read. "President Biden conveyed his ongoing commitment in that regard."
