French President Emmanuel Macron has addressed the media after footage showed his wife, Brigitte, pushing him away with both hands on his face before they disembarked from their plane to start a tour of Southeast Asia this weekend.
The video was taken by The Associated Press as the Macrons arrived in Hanoi, Vietnam, on Sunday.
A uniformed man could be seen pulling open the plane door and revealing the president standing inside.Brigitte Macron's arms were captured reaching out and pushing Macron away.One hand was covering his mouth and part of his nose while the other was on his jaw. The French leader recoiled, turning his head away. Apparently realising he was on camera, Macron broke into a smile and gave a little wave.
The French President later told reporters they were "simply joking around." Macron said the incident has been overblown into "a sort of geo-planetary catastrophe."
