Intro Script
French President Emmanuel Macron gave a speech to the European Parliament in Strasbourg today in which he said a stronger European Union can serve as a defence against growing authoritarianism and nationalism across the world. He said that although the United States is a close ally of the EU, he would include it in the list of countries which are diverging from European values. Ireland South MEP Sean Kelly said the French President was right to point that out.
