Macron calls nationalism a 'betrayal of patriotism' during Armistice Day remarks
French President Emmanuel Macron tore into “nationalism” in an apparent jab at
President Trump during his Armistice Day remarks in Paris.
Speaking Sunday at the Arc de Triomphe beside Trump and other world leaders, Macron decried nationalism as “a betrayal of patriotism.”
“Patriotism is the exact opposite of nationalism,” Macron said.“Nationalism is a betrayal of patriotism. By saying our interests first ... we erase what a nation holds dearest, what gives it life, what gives it grace, and what is essential: its moral values."
Trump has faced criticism for referring to himself as a nationalist, comments that he doubled down on last week during a press conference.
