On Monday, French President Emmanuel Macron, along with his spouse, Brigitte, arrived in Washington D. C. on an official visit to the White House to meet with his American counterpart Donald Trump.
Upon arriving at the White House, President Macron took to Twitter to announce that “the United States and France have a particular responsibility. We are the guarantors of contemporary multilateralism. This visit is very important in the context of the uncertainties, troubles and threats that we currently face. We have a number of challenges to meet.”
Les États-Unis et la France ont une responsabilité particulière. Nous sommes garants du multilatéralisme contemporain. Cette visite est très importante dans le contexte d’incertitudes, troubles et menaces qui est le nôtre. Nous avons de nombreux défis à relever. pic.twitter.com/EqluDUPpUr
His words, however, caused quite a stir on the social media platform; some users argued that the tweet was irrelevant…
Come on, Mr Macron.
