French President Macron on 11/6 handed his hand over Biden's co-level when he first met at the G7 Summit in Cornwall, England.
But this warm gesture is not enough to hide the disappointment of the French president before a series of problems, when the Biden agency is trying to bring the US back to the global stage after 4 years of CO under Donald Trump time
US President Joe Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron talked after taking photos with other guests at the G7 Summit in Cornwall, England, on June 11.
According to Elysee power, two leaders are expected to have a bilateral meeting at the coastal resort Carbis Bay, southwest of England.
Even so, President Emmanuel Macron felt dissatisfied with President Joe Biden tried to bring the US to the central position in global efforts to address problems such as climate change and taxation
On June 10, Macron said he was careful when Washington reversed foreign policy, especially about US relations with the European Union (EU).
Last month, the Biden government supports a minimum tax rate of 15% for multinational companies, leading to a historical agreement between Finance Ministers G7 last week.
The French President called this a big step towards a more fair globalization, but Macron quickly pointed out that he had mobilized this for the past 4 years.
I thought about our grape growers and many companies in the past two years have to pay for a violent reaction from the US because we apply digital taxes.
President Macron cautiously received announcements from President Biden on June 10 on the US would support 500 million doses of Vaccine Covid-19 for poorer countries.
If the US promised to meet 500 million doses at the end of 2021, it was a great news and the EU had to do something to not be inferior, the French President announced.
President Macron did not hide his skepticism on the proposal that the United States made about abolishing intellectual property rights for vaccines because he only agreed to abandon this right.
I am waiting to see what the exact proposal from the US is, Macron said.
Macron also protested what he called American blockade behavior for exporting raw materials that makes the vaccine cannot be produced abroad, which he hopes to be removed at G7.
He called on laboratories, mostly in the United States, supporting 10% of the vaccines they sold.
Macron also welcomed Biden's announcement to meet the summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
I have always supported the dialogue, the French president said.
And Macron asked Americans, as he did with former Trump President, clarifying the targets that NATO towards, especially for China.
In order for this to come true, we need enough European countries with a complete military model like France, Macron emphasized in another clear message sent to Washington.
