Donald Trump, the president-elect, met with French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris to celebrate the reopening of Notre Dame, which was damaged by fire in 2019. Their handshake drew attention for its unusual grip, described by some as a "power move." Security was heightened for the event, with Trump receiving protection from both French authorities and the U.S. Secret Service. Macron's office stated that Trump was invited as the leader of a "friendly nation," downplaying the significance of the invitation. During his visit, Trump also met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, amid ongoing discussions about support for Ukraine. The relationship between Trump and Macron has fluctuated, but Macron recently congratulated Trump after his election victory.
