French President Emmanuel Macron told U.S. President Donald Trump that he could set up a G7 meeting in Paris on Thursday afternoon and that he did not understand what Trump was "doing on Greenland," in a screenshot of the messages that Trump posted on Truth Social and said was a note from Macron.
According to the messages, Macron told the U.S. president that he could invite the Ukrainians, the Danish, the Syrians and the Russians to participate on the margins of the meeting, and also invited Trump to have dinner with him in Paris on Thursday.
Trump's replies, if any, were not part of the screenshot that he posted. The White House and the Macron's office did not respond to a request for comment.
A source close to Macron said that the text message shared by Trump was authentic.
EU leaders are set to convene in Brussels on Thursday evening for an emergency summit following Trump's threats to impose new tariffs on several EU countries over his demand to acquire Greenland.
