French president Emmanuel Macron underwent a faux pas moment just before he exited a plane in Vietnam, when his wife Brigitte shoved him in the face.

According to the Daily Wire, the moment was made hilarious because Macron was facing his wife rather than the doorway off the plane and did not appear to know the doorway had opened. But when his wife shoved his face, it turned his head 90 degrees so he was facing out the door.

It immediately dawned on him that he could be seen and waved and smiled before heading back toward his wife.

Macron set aside the moment, telling reporters, “I was bickering, or rather joking, with my wife. It’s nothing.” An Elysee official echoed, “It was a moment when the president and his wife were relaxing one last time before the start of the trip by having a laugh.”

According to the Daily Wire, the French president was visiting Hanoi and “Macron emphasized the need for ‘an order based on law’ at a time of ‘both great imbalance and a return to power-driven rhetoric and intimidation,’” ABC News reported. France and Vietnam signed deals worth more than $10 billion after President Donald Trump threatened to impose 50% tariffs on European Union goods starting July 9.

Macron got together with the leaders of the United Kingdom and Canada on May 19 to demand that Israel stop the expansion of military operations in Gaza that are designed to eliminate the terrorist group Hamas. The statement demanded that a cease-fire be implemented and a two-state solution created, saying, “We are committed to recognizing a Palestinian state.”
