The French President has met with Donald Trump at the White House, seeking stability following America's sidestep of traditional European ties.  

It comes as world leaders met in Kyiv on the third-year anniversary of Russia's invasion, and the UN General Assembly voted against a US resolution to end the war without reference to Russian aggression.  

Newstalk ZB European Correspondent Catherine Field told Mike Hosking Emmanuel Macron will be saying Europe understands his frustrations with defence spending.  

But Macron will also be asking Trump to keep the US European security guarantee in place, as it's what their security and economics are based on.
