France President Emmanuel Macron called Donald Trump on the phone after his journey to the French embassy was blocked by police officers preparing for the motorcade of the US President.
A video making the rounds shows Macron, outside his vehicle on Monday, speaking with New York Police officers asking to ‘negotiate’ with them.
Macron was in New York to co-chair the 80th United Nations General Assembly.
“I’m sorry. Mr President I’m really sorry. It’s just that everything’s been frozen right now. There’s a motorcade coming right now. That’s why,” a police officer told the French leader.
Then Macron rings Trump saying: “How are you? Guess what? I’m waiting because everything is frozen for you.”
Eventually, the barricades open but only for pedestrians.
