Macron's light-hearted moment in Vietnam sparks online buzz
During Emmanuel Macron's visit to Vietnam, an unusual incident occurred. Cameras captured a moment when the president's wife's hand briefly covered his face, leading some to think that Brigitte Macron had slapped her husband.
The incident occurred aboard the French presidential plane just after landing in Vietnam. Cameras recorded when Brigitte Macron's hand covered her husband's face, and she quickly moved it away. It seemed as if she had slapped the President of France. He started waving to the onlookers when he realized the scene had been recorded.
The office of the French President initially denied the authenticity of the recording. However, they later confirmed that the incident did indeed happen. One of Macron's associates described the event as a "harmless spat," while others minimized the situation, suggesting it was a way to relieve stress before the trip.
Another source mentioned that it was a final moment of relaxation and light-hearted joking between the president and his wife before their departure.
Did the incident affect the president's image?
The recording became very popular on social media and has been widely discussed. Some sources suggest that pro-Russian accounts are now using it to spread conspiracy theories.
