The French President says he wants Europe to defend its strategic interests and assert its own financial independence in response to the new global economic and defense situation caused by the Trump presidency. Macron took things further and said that the EU needs to modernize its post-Cold War relations with Russia. Russia has been the boogeyman for Europeans for years now; it seems thats now about to change. In Macrons own words, its time for realism in EU-Russia ties.
