French President Emmanuel Macron arrived in South Korea on Thursday after visiting fellow US ally Japan, where he praised Europe’s “predictability” in an apparent swipe at Donald Trump over the Iran war, AFP reported.

Macron’s two-day itinerary includes a summit with President Lee Jae Myung and a visit to a war memorial to pay tribute to French soldiers who fought in the Korean War, as well as an economic forum and dinner with K-pop stars and South Korean filmmakers.

In Japan, the French leader signed a roadmap on critical minerals and defence cooperation and held more talks on Thursday with Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, as well as meeting the imperial couple with his wife Brigitte Macron.

US President Trump called France “very unhelpful” over the Iran war on Tuesday and then made fun of Macron, saying a day later his wife “treats him extremely badly” while mimicking his accent.

Macron praised Europe’s “predictability” on Wednesday while in Japan, contrasting it with those that “could hurt you without even informing you” in an apparent reference to the United States, according to AFP.
