Trump Welcomes French President Macron to White House



President Donald Trump and first lady, Melania Trump welcomed French
President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte Macron to the White
House in a formal arrival ceremony.

The arrival was heavy on pomp, with nearly 500 U.S. service-members from
all five military branches participating in the ceremonial welcome,
which includes a "Review of the Troops."

Vice President Mike Pence and several members of Trump's Cabinet,
lawmakers, and military families were in attendance. The audience
included students from the Maya Angelou French Immersion School in
Temple Hills, Maryland.

The two leaders are spending the morning in meetings and then hold a
joint news conference. On Tuesday night, Macron will be feted at Trump's
first state dinner.
