Detox. No, Emmanuel Macron was not “snubbed” by Vladimir Putin

The scene greatly amuses the detractors of Emmanuel Macron. A short video massively shared on Twitter on January 25, shows what looks like a stinging diplomatic humiliation for the French president. We can see Vladimir Putin appearing before an audience of heads of state during an official visit. Royally snubbing the Macron couple, he reaches out to German Chancellor Angela Merkel and then to Donald and Melania Trump.

Shared in a far from trivial context: that of a recent rise in tension between Ukraine and Russia and while the On January 25, Emmanuel Macron assured than ” the response will be there ” and ” very high cost in case of Russian aggression in Ukraine, this video is actually truncated.

Originally, these images date from November 11, 2018 and were shot by many media during the centenary of the Armistice of the 1st World War. The event then brought together in Paris, at the foot of the Arc de Triomphe, nearly 70 heads of state, foremost among whom were Emmanuel Macron, Donald Trump, Angela Merkel and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The full, uncut scene actually shows Vladimir Putin arriving, after all his counterparts are settled. There, he begins by shaking hands with Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron, before greeting the other officials present in the row. Addressing, in passing, a thumbs up to Donald Trump.
