“The View” co-host Joy Behar suggested on Tuesday that President Donald Trump “owes something” to Russian President Vladimir Putin while discussing\u00a0the president’s meeting<\/a>\u00a0with French President Emmanuel Macron.<\/p>\n

“I think this president, unfortunately, perhaps either doesn\u2019t understand geopolitics and doesn\u2019t understand the importance of having allies and the importance of our allyship or perhaps there is a reason why, to your point, Joy, that he is so enthralled with Russia,” Hostin said. “I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s because he thinks by getting Russia closer to the United States, that perhaps they\u2019ll ice out China. I think that is a ridiculous reading of the political landscape.”<\/p>\n

The co-hosts discussed\u00a0Trump’s press conference<\/a>\u00a0and meeting with Marcon, who both predicted the war could end within weeks on Monday.<\/p>\n

“What does he owe Putin? Maybe he owes something to Putin,” Behar predicted.<\/p>\n

The other co-hosts also criticized the president and his posture on the war, including co-host Whoopi Goldberg. Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin noted\u00a0that the United States voted<\/a>\u00a0against a United Nations resolution laying blame on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n

“I just think back to many of our fathers and grandfathers and great-grandfathers who fought these wars to make sure that we were not chummy and didn\u2019t chum up and, you know, as we\u2019re disappearing American history, what else are we disappearing? Are we forgetting who these guys are? And, it is all transactional. It is all transactional,” Goldberg said.<\/p>\n

“You mentioned Macron and how he spoke to the fact that Europe knows it needs to get involved more and I don\u2019t know if this pivot is because Donald Trump always called for that, or they now realize they can\u2019t rely on the United States,” co-host Sara Haines said, reacting to the Macron-Trump press conference.<\/p>\n

“I think the other thing that maybe Donald Trump needs to realize is, when you depend on the – and I’m going oversimplify this – the bad guy, they\u2019re there for themselves. Allies and friends are not. They actually stick with you in the tough times, so there\u2019s a transactional thing happening right here. I can\u2019t quite predict why Donald Trump is siding with Russia specifically right now,” Haines said.<\/p>\n

The White House did not immediately return a request for comment from Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

Later in the show,\u00a0the hosts paid tribute<\/a>\u00a0to Shiri Bibas and her two toddlers, Ariel and Kfir, whose bodies were recently returned by Hamas more than 500 days after the October 7 terrorist attack against Israel.<\/p>\n

The discussion prompted Goldberg to say, “I look at where we\u2019re putting our energy, I think, well, aren\u2019t these – where, who are the bad guys now?”<\/p>\n

Behar, Haines and Griffin noted that Hamas were the “bad guys.” Goldberg followed up, “Hamas is the bad guy, but what about Russia?”<\/p>\n

Hostin chimed in, “[Israeli President Benjamin] Netanyahu does have an international criminal court warrant against him.”<\/p>\n

Griffin pushed back, “There’s no equivocation of Netanyahu and Hamas, Hamas needs to be destroyed,” as Hostin insisted Goldberg was asking, “Who are the bad guys?”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
