As cross-Atlantic tensions remain high over how to end the Russia–Ukraine war, President Donald Trump and French counterpart Emmanuel Macron engaged in their own handshake tug-of-war at the White House on Monday.

Donald Trump and French president Emmanuel Macron shared a lengthy, awkward handshake as they sat in front of reporters in the Oval Office on Monday. The handshake, which resembled a cringey dap up, spanned six seconds and included them pulling at each other’s arms—a clear power struggle that was not masked by them sharing a laugh throughout.
