France’s Emmanuel Macron Reaps the Benefits of Being the Anti-Trump

It was just a six-second video clip, but it signaled a coming-out of sorts. In Brussels in late May, France's brand-new President Emmanuel Macron engaged in a white-knuckle hand-grip with President Donald Trump, in a gesture that the French leader admitted he had carefully planned, in order to signal to Trump he would not be messed with. "You have to show you will not give little concessions," Macron explained to a French journalist afterwards.
