Macron-Trump handshake under scrutiny as pair meet for first time
- 7 years ago
US President Donald Trump met with his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron, for the first time in Brussels on May 25, ahead of a NATO meeting later in the day. The handshake shared between the two leaders came under scrutiny as reports described the gesture as a "tellingly firm handshake" or a "good-natured death grip," while noting that Macron's grip appeared to have turned Trump's knuckles white.
