French prez Emmanuel Macron sets emergency summit for European leaders

French President Emmanuel Macron has summoned Europe’s leaders to Paris on Monday for an emergency summit, where President Trump will be on the agenda

Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski revealed Macron’s plans while attending the Munich Security Conference Saturday, Politico reported.

“I’m very glad that President Macron has called our leaders to Paris,” Sikorski said, adding he expects the European leaders to discuss, “in a very serious fashion,” the new Trump administration.

President Trump has a method of operating which the Russians call razvedka boyem — reconnaissance through battle,” said Sikorski, according to Politico.

“You push and you see what happens, and then you change your position. … And we need to respond.”

It was unclear what time the meeting would occur on Monday.

Also unknown was which European Union leaders had been invited and which planned to attend.

A Macron spokesperson did not respond to Politico’s calls for comment.

French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot was also a member of the panel with Sikorski, but would neither confirm nor deny an emergency summit had been scheduled.

Sikorski said Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk would be at Macron’s meeting.

“We need to show our strength and unity,” wrote Sikorski said in a social media post.
