France Mocks Trump

France also mocked the US over Trump’s insistence on Greenland. In a post on X, the official account of the French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs wrote, “If one day there is a fire, then firefighters will intervene, so it’s better to burn the house down now.” Using similar analogies, they added, “If one day a shark might attack, then intervention will be necessary, so it’s better to eat the lifeguard now,” and “If one day there is an accident, then there will be damage, so it’s better to crash the car now.”
