Great news
Peace, Islam is the truth. Read the Qur'an
It is embarrassing that President Macron knows English far better than most Americans will ever speak French.
Fact check: Morocco is USA's first ally (1777) France joined in 1778
Putin weaponised energy and food? so we didn't sanction Russia? Russia sanctioned us? Not how I remember it so this must be BS.
I really never understood how 60 minutes is shown in less than 60 minutes!
Hahahah 🤣💀 Its funny cause its true
Speaking English a second language Pres. Macron is way more articulate than most American politicians. He doesn't sidestep questions infantilize the audience. Hope some of our Dem and Reps were watching this.
E. M. is a Rothschild banker and recruit /puppet of Herr Klaus Schwab (world economic forum and young global leaders). He was selected, not elected. One can be articulate and have good looks and still be a criminal . He destroyed our electric program, sold Alstom, etc poor choices and we are now ruined.
@@kalitheamare What hard evidence do you have that he was a Rothschild banker?
"we are ruined" who is "we?"
Well maybe in this particular interview he doesn't infantilize the audience and you may assume it's generally the case. But trust me as a French citizen, he does it each time...
He is a ruthless man but with guts he runs rings around the limeys in uk . He will end up head of the EU for sure
@@antonmoulard Je me fiche de son intention. Le fait est qu'il est dix fois plus éloquent en anglais que presque tous les politiciens américains
I'm honestly surprised that a French president speaks English in an interview and even very decently. Never heard that before personally (and neither from German politicians).
Macron has been an investment banker before, so guess he needs to be able to speak it. There are also German leaders (e.g., Guttenberg) who speak decent English
Wtf are you talking about? Besides Macron, several political heads in Europe speak pretty decent English. Moreover a significant number of people in Germany, Netherlands, Austria, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, and Portugal speak English at a fluency that is only given away by their accent.
The current chancellor speaks English.
Germany’s chancellors in the 70s, Willy Brandt and Helmut Schmidt spoke it very well. Schmidt himself sounded like a native, even in his mid 90s he was still reading English newspapers.
huh?
Here's German chancellor Olaf Scholz speaking English as well: czcams.com/video/1a1JWvLfEZU/video.html
There are many more English interviews like this.
Thought Macron would get confused by "desynced" until he replied with "desynchonization". His English is pretty great, and his accent is smooth and easy to understand.
I honestly also thought the interviewer may have confused Macron into thinking he said "re-think" rather than "re-sync", but apparently he understood it without any problems. He's really getting good at english
Trained by us, made a President by us.
We learn French in the UK and English in France
Excellent language skills. Considering most Americans can't hardly speak their own language.
Says a lot about where the world is in terms of multilingualism
Best interview l have seen of a foreign president in America since l can't remember when.
Intelligent journalist, pithy questions and the very thoughtful, competent and impressive representative of France.
Vive la France. Vive la République.
Unfortunately Macron was overly coached and shared nothing except his pathetic response to Putin, hate if Trump, and crying over Bidens policies that hurt his economy.
We're with you President Macron...
True AMERICANS feel your pain and agree with you 100%!!!
@@rack9458 Hilarious... Did you happen to catch the celebration at the Tomb of the Unknown soldier a few days ago.... Where President Macron had to be bidens handler during the event??? Guess not... the entire World knows what an ABSOLUTE JOKE this ADMINISTRATION is!!! And YES, jb's decisions are negatively affecting the World!
Who, may I ask, Do you think is RESPONSIBLE for the current state of affairs in AMERICA???
@@jenh9361 He literally said his countries pains are due to Bidens Inflation Reduction act. Did you not watch 60 Min?
@@jenh9361 I agree 100%. Biden is a joke!
My respect for Macron went way up because of how direct he was and how little he dodged the question
just a slight dodge, think it's important to see that both France and the States have a many shared goals when it comes to geopolitics, and that's where at least half of the convergence lies also
Questions were submitted prior to the interview, don't be naive
He didn't get any hard questions, lol
Respect and honor of cowards is almost a given, it’s 2023, cowards are in fashion right now. In fact, for years now.
@@thetruth7633 How do you know?
I like him a thousand times more now than before seeing this. Thank you, 60 Minutes.
If you watch a favourable interview of anyone you'll like them 1000x more than before. If you watch an interview with Hitler where they ask him about what he will do for poverty, you'd have a better view of him. Doesn't make him a good person.
This is the same thing, different person (and different in scale, obviously).
An interview where he is asked easy questions like "was your meeting a success" will of course score points with any viewer.
You shouldn't, French people are suffering since his election
@@hanneslundin346 it crossed my mind and you just confirmed it. Thank you
My heart is English but my stomach is French...
I threw up some stuff from my stomach so sounds about right
My liver is Irish
@@dylanmurphy9389 hahahahahaha
My stomach is American,Italian,And Mexican.
My stomach is dogs. My stomach is China.
He is very honest and addresses the USA directly. Very few people do that with the USA
Yet if France was attacked he’d be the first to cry if USA doesn’t help and if the USA was attacked they’d laugh because that country that’s attacking would be commuting suicide France ain’t built like that they’re soft like their citizens
The Taliban and Iranians are very honest and direct in addressing the USA too. 🤣
If you have a president like Trump, everything can be direct, and Europe was in no danger. All Trump asked was pay your fair share to NATO. They didn't like that kind of common sense directness didn't they. So look at them now, having to deal with a communist US Federal government.
@@tomsd8656 Exactly, we should get rid of the constitution just like what Trump say it is a special situation.
@@der0ng Here lies the dilemma. The constitution let the States decide their own election laws Now we have rogue States governments that defraud the election. There is a way to fix this problem without violating the constitution. The founders did foresee this problem of rogue States; therefore in the original constitution, the federal gov did not have too much power. We can go back to that version, then who cares if the federal gov is run by a demented dude and his handlers. There was not even federal income tax in the original constitution.
The honesty he has and the way he speaks even when it's a second language to him, it's just great to watch, I've never seen an interview of him before, and i'm glad i did now, seems like a good president and someone knows what he's doing.
Just one example : he came from the Left, then betrayed the Left just before the 2017 elections and lead now a total Right-sided policy. A lot of French don't like him.
@@arctan9292 I understand that part, and if i would tell the truth i might get a warning so i'll stay silent.
... so, who's gonna tell 'em? yikes
@@itsflowersideWhat?
He is a great President.
Without France, the US would have had a whole lot harder and rougher times defeating the English during colonial times.
@@channingshores45 America is a continent not just one single country. It cannot be all that hard to say the US instead.
People often think about the french finacial aid, but don't know that 90% of the gunpowder was provided by the french, that both the french navy and the french army on the US front alone were larger than the continental army, and France joining turned an embarrasment for the UK into a world war, with fights in europe, africa, south asia...
It is indeed hard to imagine how the continental army could have won alone.
Agreed. We English have our differences with the French but they always have our respect, and it is fatal to underestimate them 🍷
@@Celticowl4136 after centuries of war, the English and French celebrated their reconciliation by going to fight together... Russia! In Crimea, 1854-55. A year spent in the trenches facing a Russian artillery three times superior, besieging 35,000 Russian soldiers entrenched in Sevastopol. For the anecdote, the Russian Empire launched on the allied armies 4 regiments of Ukrainian Cossack cavalrymen.
In 1855, Russia signed the surrender.
Just ask Ayiti🇭🇹
He speaks better English than the average Joe on the streets of the UK and USA.
🙄
@@emerywills5814 Can't tell that just through this interview.many people seem eloquent, but then when engaging on a conversational level, involving instruction, you find them less capable
incorrect
I thought the exact same thing! Painful to listen to most of our own homegrown superstar grifters try to put a coherent sentence together.
You mean sleepy Joe in the white house?
One of the best interviews I’ve seen on 60 Minutes
hello israel sir. i subscribed your channel. love from india.
Should've uploaded the full version.
I wish our own politicians could articulate our polices in English as well as he did. What a remarkable leader at 44 years!
Most of them do. You just are more interested in those who don't. Not that Macron doesn't speak very good english, btw.
Are you a relation of Eau de Vie?
@@Michael-mh2tw And you have a remarkable gift for presumption. One comment and you purport to know my interests. One hopes you are using your perspicacity for more than idle--and inaccurate--speculation. In the meantime, you should use it to verify your grammar. "English" is capitalized when referring to the language. Macron would probably blush at your praise.
@@ajarnwordsmith628 Nous sommes cousins au second degré.
A protege of Klaus Schwab who wants to destroy this civilization. You must be REALLY asleep not to see that. 😳
Excellent interview.
Articulate, brilliant, eloquent, charismatic, simple and at the same time classic, Peace loving, a good negotiator, an ally when needed. This is one of Europe's youngest leaders. Good luck, President Macron. Vive La France. Felicitations.
Sound like a good candidate to be the antichrist 🤨
Excellent journalism. Top notch interview.
Same journalism said the Hunter Biden Laptop is Russian Fake News.
No terrible
I am not French. I don't know what the French citizens think of President Macron or his policies. But I do like how honest and direct he is. He didn't skirt any questions. I'm shocked he made time for this interview.
He’s just being French. Most French people are direct and honest. They don’t sugarcoat things.
C'est un menteur manipulateur !
Oui c'est une qualité. Yes, this is a quality
I am French bro, Macron might seems like an honest guy but he keeps contradicting himself, for exemple he (mostly through his government) told that masks were useless at the starts of the pandemic (which obviously/hopefully you know ain’t true),then told the opposite, he also told at the 2017 elections that any officials would have to step down from their responsibility if investigated by justice, however, I can recall at least 3 people (Alexis kholer,Eric Dupont Moretti and Gerald Darmanin) who got (and still are)in trouble with justice, and still are working for the government. Though there is obviously some more that I don’t know about.
Plus Emanuel Macron is also being investigated himself for illegal financing of his 2017 and 2022 campaigns.
He is also kinda fainting democracy through « citizen conventions » that makes propositions for futur laws and reforms, except that he only agrees on the ones he was already ok with applying, and washes off all of the impactful stuff (if that makes sense) from the one’s he isn’t fully fan off.
So conclusion: no da best brother, and not that honest neither.
It's only when he speak english
A level headed leader is not something to take for granted…these days it sometimes feels everyone is throwing rocks in a glass house, no one is civil anymore.
Biden is ci v il
Great to hear a perspective on world events and on America from another perspective! Well said Emmanuel Macron.
Name of interviewer should be included in description, no? Bill Whitaker always does a fantastic job!!
I’ve never seen President Macron give an in-depth interview such as this before, and I never knew he spoke such good English. He speaks better English than most Americans. He’s a smart articulate man.
I didn't realize he spoke good English either, interesting to me. I like him. He's a good man, IMO.
To my surprise, I really thought we would have a translator translate whatever Macron would be saying. Damn, he's getting good!
The french are educated
60 minutes is the one news program that has been consistant through the years. Phenomenal interview.
Is it possible to imagine, that French language is prohibited on someone's whim in the Canada, and only English is proclaimed as the compulsory one. Sure, it's impossible!
Canada is a bilingual country:
"both English and French are recognized as official languages and granted equal status by the Canadian government.The federal government provides services and operates in both languages".
"Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms" requires all provinces and territories to provide primary and secondary education to their official-language minorities"
"Minsk agreements" signed by Ukraine, stipulated the means and measures, providing "rights and freedoms" for ethnic Russians in Ukraine, on their historical land, developed by their ancestors long before the Independent State of Ukraine emerged in 1991
Ukraine signed Minsk Agreement, but refused to implement it. Instead Ukraine promised the filtration camps in Donbass and bombarded it. 16 thousands residents of Donbass, including children perished, gone, within previous 8 years - the victims of everyday shellings and terrorist attacks of Ukraine.
"Today’s neo-Banderite battalions, fueled by manic hatred of anything “Russian,” got the lion’s share of military aid from.........the the world's Democracies.
That bolstered them for future attacks on Donbas and then ultimately on Russia."
Consistently liberal. I should say communist now, because liberal means free, but mainstream media today don't believe in freedom of expression.
@@larisasayenko1604 The war in Ukraine should be ended by people's decision. They should be allowed to vote on which country they want to be with.
Consistant with establishment propaganda. They said the Hunter Biden Laptop is Russian Fake News.
reflecting on the history, it's quite uncanny to see the interviewer brought up, as an introduction, the history of u.s and france on the american independence from uk, to stress how close u.s and france have long been. the interesting fact is that after u.s achieved its independence with much as financial and military support as possible the french could provide, it started going back to trade enormously with uk, ruling out france pretty much as a trade partner, which is now believed to be a trigger that led all way up to the french revolution and the execution of louis 16th and his wife, marie.
Interesting
The revolutions were freemasonic and oligarchs who craved power and control. They destroyed Christian Monarchies.
They are the secret societies Kennedy warned us about.
If only Mr. Macron had similar attitude of national interest towards former French colonies that are now “independent” countries, but are still being financial exploited by France
GREAT point.
Populist non sense. Stop spreading BS please.
@@MN-vz8qm what about what I said is “bs.”
@@omowhanre you are speaking as if we were living in 1960.
France isn't even anymore in the top3, often not even top5, of the trade partners of its former colonies. The big players in africa are russia, canada or china nowadays.
What is remaining is cumbersome old treaties, and France does what it can, year after year, to untie itself from africa.
This continent has always been a net cost to france, colonial time included.
@@MN-vz8qm That’s what France would like you to belive. Just like Britain has “the Commonwealth,” France has “La Francophonie.” Why is it that Mail and Senegal are NOT ALLOWED to change their currency or official language? “La Francophonie” dictates that colonial history is NOT ALLOWED to be taught within said “ex”- colonies. The results of disobedience have resulted in leaders who push true independence being killed or removed politically. The financial benefits to France are in the trillions. STOP IT. It’s ok not to know, but it’s not ok to discount the truth.
Great interview 👏
Even 60 Minutes asked some hard questions. Not sure that Macron/France can deliver though.
A calm and level-headed president.
A calm and level headed president that shagged his teacher 😂😂
Unlike his presidential counterpart Marie Le Pen , was pro Russian .
This made me laugh😂
@@rsmithabq8304 Marine Le Pen would've definitely mentioned the Minsk agreements and put forward a version of it in negotiations with Russia, effectively securing the end of the war. She'd have ended this thing before it even began.
@You Elh I got no idea how this comment has anything to do with Le Pen.
Thanks for the updates please 🙏
"A centrist willing to shake up the status quo"
Thats a hilarious quote. Centrism and the status quo go hand in hand.
No, the status quo depends entirely on the situation. If you lived in the USSR the status quo wasn't centrist. Right now the status quo is political polarization and hyper partisanship, centrism is not the norm.
@@rayquaza1245 I never said anything about the USSR. I'm talking about Europe. The status quo is absolutely centrism.

I. Very good interview. Thanks to the good questions. The French President did his best to answer to them. II. I've commented the state visit before. This morning, I'll come back on some relative few elements about the US-France relationship. 2.1. Misunderstanding can always negatively affect relations. Therefore, it's relevant to bring clarity, transparency, love and transcendence. 2.2. It's relevant for Pr Macron and the Europeans to clearly understand that THE AMERICANIZATION OF THE 20TH AND 21ST CENTURIES IS STRONGLY AND POSITIVELY ASSOCIATED WITH EXPANSIONISM. AND THIS EXPANSIONISM IS VERY DIFFERENTLY FROM IMPERIALISM AND ISOLATIONISM.

I appreciate that he thinks this is fixable. He has hope, more than most.
@Official60Minutes.
Realistically not fixable while putler is in charge
Giving up means letting down millions of people. What is his alternative ?
Anyone wondering why these 60 minute things are never 60 minutes?
this is a recap. the full 60 minutes is on their site, most likely.
This was an Excellent interview. Macron consistently keeps the communication lines open with Hilter's apprentice and he is trying his best to figure out how to keep our World Safe. He truly is a very fine Leader. Yes, many people need to agree to disagree and get on with things.
How are Putin and Hitler similar?
@@AndyML3883 if you don't see it by now then I am afraid I cannot show you the light.

@@captainpawpawchannel and why did he win re-election in a landslide?
@@RigbyismyFavCatever in France you can easily win even if you are a small minority (Macron only has 20% of the voters)
Thanks for portraying our president. We are proud to be featured in such important times, where the destiny of our civilisation is at stake. God bless America, et Vive la France.
I’d be disappointed in Macron, literally any gains for Putin sets the precedent that any would be dictators with Nukes and a large arsenal will be allowed to conquer its small neighbors without reproach. Macron only wants peace to allow for the importation or Russian gas once more, if I recall correctly you recently had some strikes in France because of energy strains.
🇫🇷🇺🇸✊🕊️
God bless America, great respect for all american peoples, love you from France.
He speaks English beautifully!
A masterclass embodiment of french values - a crucial contributor to western discourse
French values?? What is that? Surrendering?
A very bad and corrupt president that is ruining France
@@RumblesBettr if you're referring to 1940, France lost a battle, 100,00 deaths in only several months, nothing to be ashamed of. USA, a much bigger country, had 60,000 casualties in Vietnam, a war that last 20 years...
Masterclass would assume they did their part in Nato.
France 1.9% of GDP for defense, big talk thats it. Trump just called out Europe for their lack of paying their part. That's why he was salty.
Great exchange. Vive la France, God Bless the USA

Thank you, Mr. President, for the respect of speaking to us in our language. I was prepared to read subtitles. Thank you also for your leadership. EDIT: for the haters: HE invited 60 MINUTES. Not the other way around. Imagine if I invited you to my house knowing you only spoke English, and then insisted on speaking German because this is my house. But you're not capable of critical thought or empathy, or else you'd have not needed this explanation in the first place.
His English has gotten much better
I am sure the Ukrainian people will sleep well knowing you were not inconvenienced
Honest question: would it have *bothered* you to read subtitles?

What did he see in the eyes of Putin? One can say the same about Biden, “In his eyes I saw dementia of American people”. And how has “France always respected Russian people”? Especially in 1812 when Napoleon invaded Russia. France also “very much respected Russia” invading it in 1918 together with Great Britain and in some other cases. Hypocrisy of this guy has no limits.

Does he address the Burkina Faso child labor issue that Italy's Meloni brought up? (That woman shows that even in anger, Italian is a beautifully melodic language.)
Macron is a very smart and young leader
France can be proud to have him as its leader
Macron is so right about keeping an open channel with Putin. The only way out of this mess is through diplomacy.

Diplomacy with Putin? The man only respects power and force. He has played Macron since day one!
Macrons peace agreements are a silly notion, Putin doesn’t care about diplomacy, if he did he wouldn’t have invaded Crimea, Georgia and Chechnya. Putin sees himself as the restorer of Russia and will not negotiate till he feels he has won something. What does this say for other would be conquerers, that it’s ok to conquer your neighbors as long as you have nukes and have a large military? Any gains for Putin would set a dangerous precedent for those who are not protected by the nato umbrella.
@@alexhumble7653agreed
@@alexhumble7653 France and UK never invaded Russia in 1918, as far as I know Brits were supporting Whites with finances and weapons (like every single power conflicted with bolsheviks back then) but not a single French soldier was fighting in civil war.

A James Bond type of character...
He is intelligent, smart and good for Europe
wow thank you. We often dont get interviews with this man like this.
So... 60 Minutes interviewed president Damien from "The Omen" SMH
What many fail to see is how important it is to have a 5th country like France with a more moderate approach to discussing issues that are points of contention between adversaries and to some degree, amongst allies within NATO. Although France is firmly on the side of the Western block--unlike the UK, it has pursued a more nuanced and pragmatic approach to dealing with issues concerning Russia and China as evident of the French President's attempt to maintain normal relations and serve as mediator between the five permanent members of the UN Security Council.
France is easily overlooked in today's world and is often seen as a second rate power in terms of it's economic, political, and military influence; but despite it's shortcomings it continues to play an important role in international affairs that no other country, emerging or otherwise can replicate and certainly supplant.
If Macron were the President of the EU, I think he would make the EU into a true Superpower.
At present, it is a "United Europe of States", rather than a "United States of Europe", as former French President Francois Mitterrand once described it.
I respect his direct answers and addressing the core of the energy problem in Europe. He says what pretty much every informed citizen in Europe knows very well. I hope similar progress can be achieved in the relationship with my home country, Italy, especially regarding immigration.

Yes, many actually. Warnock, Sanders, Buttigieg, Warren, and many others.
Here in france our leaders are usually part of the elite.
Most are educated in our best schools (which contrary to US university have their entrance purely merit based), and Macron like most of them has an extremely solid education, he went to SciencePo (political science formation), then wen to the university for a master in philosophy, then went to the ENA (the absolute elite when it comes to political science and state managment), where he ended up 5th best of the class.
He was also a successfull businessman (he made millions mediating the fusion between two multinaitonal companies), economic advisor to a former president, has hobbies like playing piano (he got 3rd place at the conservatory of Amiens) etc...
He's actually my favorite head of state on earth, he is available to listen, ready to talk, open to criticism. French people are blessed to have such a leader
he's not very popular here in france at all
What did he see in the eyes of Putin? One can say the same about Biden, “In his eyes I saw dementia of American people”. And how has “France always respected Russian people”? Especially in 1812 when Napoleon invaded Russia. France also “very much respected Russia” invading it in 1918 together with Great Britain and in some other cases. Hypocrisy of this guy has no limits. All this he speaks putting on a meaningful face. Indeed he is the most miserable president of France, which is big shame to the country.
@@alexhumble7653 wow. You just seem to have an inside scoop. 😂
yes we are, but not everyone understand it in France... but fortunately people like me are here to vote at the right time and make sure the far right always lose the elections.
I simply know basic history therefore it is much harder to deceive me.
Have you seen your talkative coworker during the meeting? They all say they want to do this, they want to do that. At the end they don't do anything.
There would be no United States without France.
And let us remember that our most magnificent national monument, the Statue of Liberty, is a gift from France...."I lift my lamp beside the golden door."
Glad that he spoke his mind about USA and their policies
If you are a fan of President Macron as I am, you should watch the interview Jake Tapper did with him on his show. Not as formal as this, however, but very insightful.
He is very charismatic for sure 🍷
@@Celticowl4136 Yes, and married his high school drama teacher, who has helped him to speak and present himself well for a long time.
Macron is a berk. No more.
Little Macron and his fake wife? LOL

Here’s also a very good video of Macron. The best video of him.
The thumbnail looks like a depressed Steve Carell.
Why does 60 minutes edit the interview videos so that just after the question is asked and is being answered the narrator is dubbed over for whatever exposition will summarise the interview in (presumably) 60 minutes? If Macron said it then let us hear it and just post several 60 minutes episodes if you feel the branding protocol is really necessary.
Next time someone asks me about something I did, I'm definitely responding with, "I comfirm."
sth along the lines of "j'avoue "
er...I concur...
“Je confirme” is a thing people say
I concur.
@@babytigerbeats I concur...
Excellent interview
1:00!
Great interview
Very intelligent leader. Reminds me a little of Lee kuan yee, and I mean that in the best way possible
Macron is very credible and very polished: a true statesman
You have a great president, France. Much love from Finland.
No, se don’t
Trust me, we don’t
Can WE have subtiles for french please.
Love to all americans, I have a great respect for you and I love your culture. From France!
This is a great opportunity for us to learn more about foreign allies and American relationships. Thank you President Macron and 60 Minutes for the opportunity. He is a great leader and ally for us.
No he's not. He's a puppet. YOUR puppet.
I don't think any American policy maker thinks as deeply about structural issues as the French president or Europeans in general. In America money-profit and elections drive policy.
you gotta respect that he speaks perfect conversational english
It's only to pick up English women
@@temptemp4174 no one wants to pick up English women
@@tiber64 Now, now...there you go again, but what about a wee biddy from Scotland, preferably a denizen of the Gorbals, Glasgow's very own Upper East Side? Of course, the locale comes alive on Friday nights with the downing of umpteen wee drams of Scotch to celebrate payday? Tiber64, mine's a pint of Krug, squire...
Because english is the most important
@@RumblesBettr You are off topic
American security is impacted by what happens in Europe. Some of us in the US were holding our collective breath during the last French presidential election.
" For how long ? " were the key words to hear.
France seem to be stuck in a difficult position of being jammed in between, like a little sandwich, just like Germany being reminded of nazis every time US feels dissatisfied with them.
From celebrations and congratulations being given in Italy of Nicholas Sarkozy and George Bush winning elections to insults of freedom fries and accusations of being weak when it comes to participating in joint actions against whatever current enemy might be.
France in a position of damned if you do and damned if you don't. It's exhausting place to be in.
For how long ?
Is the question.
France has always been the first on the front line in both world wars, everybody (US and Britain) chickens out before helping them until it's too late, waiting for them to either win or be whipped out before intervening, instead of immediately joining forces (ww2)....
Then some idiots still insult the millions who died and sacrificed by saying: "tHe cOwArdS sUrReNdeRed haha"
@Get Zappéd 1974 Nah... just look when some actress announced on twitter that she sold her tesla for an electric volkswagen because of elon musk defending alt right, people instantly jumped on her because volkswagen was founded by nazis
@Get Zappéd 1974 I promise you USA is never going to slautr sixmillion juus like the gemans did
US is nowhere near what gemany was in 1933/1939
Gemany slautrd literally tens of millions of people under Hitle
Trump did no such thing
this is good tv program i think
이런 인터뷰 형식의 영상 너무 좋다
Convergence & strategy... Love the Positive Nature & Frankness of President Macron.
I never have understood why Americans are so critical of foreign accents. So many foreigners speak English with more grace and finesse than Americans. This interview was informative, well edited and I have a new respect for Macron. Thank goodness, Macron was able to meet with an intelligent president instead of with the former IDIOT in office.
We need more young optimistic leaders like Macron
We give it to you ! Keep the little woke boy Alex. 😂🤣
Yeah no he’s not a good leader
@@holyromankingdomofthepoles7027Lmao you’re not French so how would you know ? Say what you want about the guy, but he’s had the most difficult presidency in decades (Covid, Ukraine war) and has managed to maintain a certain level of stability and optimism. I would take Macron over Biden, Putin, Trump etc…
@@waitbalthy6342 yeah I am French, I live in France since nearly 16 years. I would take Trump or Le Pen over Macron
@@holyromankingdomofthepoles7027 mdrrr t’es complètement perdu alors mon pauvre garçon
It's amazing how he grows a turtleneck the moment you tap the play button ...
Dude if I ever become an elected official I’m taking up Emmanuel’s turtle neck and blazer style
Wow, nothing is equal than to sit in the same room were Napoleon was sitting , this is priceless....I will do anything to run my business from there ....
Such a smart and intelligent president. I'd say he is the best one in the world to my knowledge. I don't know why his approval is below 50 percent in France, though I'm examining him from an outsiders perspective. It seems he does want to absolutely put France first as he should.
When unemployment and inflation are as high as they are right now in France it is inevitable that the leader's approval rating will suffer somewhat regardless of whether the reasons are beyond the leader's control. Macron has always struck me as a good person and a good leader too
The French will be always complaining under any president, left or right or in between .
@@hank4920 Lmao, sounds a lot like the US
governing from the center guarantees 1/2 of the far ends of any part of the political spectrum will be unhappy. They are a multi party system so lots of unhappy people among the various factions I guess.
He'S one of the few who has a vision for Europe.
Very French❤️❤️ love him💕
@Official60Minutes.
What an excellent interviewer!
1:01!
4:13 Physical Distancing at its best!
This man really knows how to appreciate himself 👌
Joking aside he is french so of course he has style and sophistication... and a pretty good president too 👌👌
We Brits could learn a few things from our french cousins
Rishi Sunak gives Macron some competition in the best dressed category. I don’t have anything else to say about Rishi. He dresses nice. That’s about it.
@@JustinLHopkins considering how rich Sunak and his wife are, yes it's normal that he dresses nice......
@@johndoe-cd9vt Never said it wasn’t.
People here praising Macron, you don't know how we hate him and how incompetent he is. He's very a good, eloquent and persuasive communicator and can humiliate his opponents on any debate.
This hypocrite is very good at playing this game, don't let that fool you, we don't like him at home.
We didn't vote for him because he's good, we only voted for him to avoid having a far-right candidate in charge.
@@moustarboygamingandreplay4340 In my experience, having lived and worked in France and then following them closely since the mid-80's, the French hate every president they have, and pretty much every politician, and indeed love to complain about a whole host of issues. Which recent president was the best, would you say?
