What could it be?
The two leaders bonded last year, and this was not the first time the two leaders shook each other’s hands so firmly. In May 2017, their knuckles turned white after a powerful long handshake to which Mr Macron told the French media that his style was “not innocent” and called it a “moment of truth”. Both the Presidents are at present at the G7 Summit, which is hosted in Canada, a conference conducted by the Group of Seven that includes, U.S., France, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom.
