DONALD Trump wants to “destroy and divide” Europe, Francois Hollande has declared in a scathing attack on the US President.

The former French President also said the US leader had appeared “weak” after he failed to confront the Russian president over the Kremlin’s interference in the US election.

US President Donald Trump’s erratic ways are creating worldwide chaos, widening divisions in Europe and weakening democracies, France’s former Socialist leader Mr Hollande said.

He said: “We are dealing with a partner who is in fact an opponent: an opponent of Europe, of multilateralism and of democracy as we know it. He wants to divide and even destroy Europe.”

“We must denounce Donald Trump’s efforts to disorganise the world, cause chaos and weaken democracies… We must make no concessions to him and adopt a more severe approach to his behaviour.”
