Sometimes hand shells themselves can be cumbersome between the world leaders.

US President Donald Trump and President of France Emmanuel Macron shared a lengthy handshake in the White House before being discussed on Monday about their discussion about the Russian war in Ukraine.

The video grasped the extended greeting between the presidents, who patted each other's shoulders of the other and shook their hand for about 15 seconds. Her conversation later turned out to be pleasant because the two only had to say flattering things on top of each other.

“President Macron is a very special man in my book,” said Trump in the Oval Office.

“We are personal friends because we work very well together,” said Macron in the White House. “The USA and France are always on the same side – I would say about history.”

Macron asks Trump not to face Russia

On the third anniversary of Ukraine's invasion of Ukraine, Macron Trump asked Macron Trump to complete a rushed deal to end the war by legitimizing Russia President Vladimir Putin's decision.

US allies are shocked by the quick pace of Trump's talks with Putin's government and proposals from the White House that the attacker nation, which they were illegally confiscated, can retain in order to conclude the Three Year War, said the USA Today today. .

Trump blamed Ukrainian President Volodyymr Zelenskyy for the invasion and described him as the “dictator without elections”. He also urges Zelenskyy to sign a critical mineral agreement in which the United States can resume money that has issued it – and much more for the defense of Ukraine under the bidden administration.

Zelensky canceled the election of his nation in spring 2024, citing continued war.

Macron orchestrated two separate emergency sessions and called Trump twice before the visit on Monday, of which he said that he should serve as a “turning point” for the role of Europe in peace talks. The two also took a Ukraine call from the group of seven parties, the International Forum, which also includes Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom.

“We want to peace quickly, but we don't want a weak agreement,” said Macron at a press conference on Monday. “President Putin violated peace.”
