Speaking at the White House, Trump claimed Paris would soon become “a Muslim city” and argued that France should have closed its borders, as the US had done.
He added that France's borders remained a problem and also criticised the country's energy situation. His remarks came days after violent protests and looting in several French cities over the cost of living and school conditions.
