"I see many, many fields where I do not see NATO but the European Union is called upon," she added, pointing to the bloc’s "huge tool box of instruments" including trade, development aid and humanitarian assistance.
In his Economist interview, Macron said allies should "reassess the reality of what NATO is" in light of US President Donald Trump
