After the pitiful spectacle, European leaders were quick to express their solidarity with the Ukrainian.

French President Emmanuel Macron, who clearly did not get ahead when Trump visited last week, has called for "respect for those who have been fighting from the beginning." Responding to the American, who had presented himself as "an arbitrator, a mediator, between two sides that have shown much hostility."
