Macron is obviously faking it, just like Marianne.

Dear Marianne. You're better than this... Macron wants to appear above the fray - a month apart from French presidential election. It's a vast and rather distateful photo op. Other candidates are bound to limited resources whilst he uses unaccounted money from the Elysée budget.

Propaganda at its finest.

Kudos to him! And his photographer who probably stood there taking hundreds of photos while Macron posed in various states of pained frustration.

To all who criticize the photo of Macron I ask: do you live in France, cause I do. Macron is doing his best. We better look at ourselves and ask what we can do right now and come into action

Lol he took his watch off for the final woe is me picture. Totally normal

For the jaded who see this as an act, Macron, w Angela Merkel, did hero’s work saving Putin nemesis Alexei Navalny & evacuating him when he was poisoned in August 2020 in Siberia. I don’t have to agree w their politics to celebrate their courage when nobody else could help.

you do not, under any circumstances, gotta hand it to macron

Macron is an autocrat, this is virtue signaling. We need some real action and substance from our leaders. Not saying this isn’t a valid cause, but this man doesn’t have the best interest of people at heart.

Hope u feel the same way about the suffering of Donbass for 8 yrs.
