French President Emmanuel Macron reacted for the first time to images that have caused controversy in the media and social networks, showing his wife, Brigitte Macron, pushing and hitting him in the face while disembarking from the presidential plane in Hanoi, Vietnam.
In a statement to the media, Macron described the moment as a personal joke between him and his wife, rejecting exaggerated interpretations.
"It was just a joke with my wife," the French president said, criticizing the overreactions to the footage.
"It is being interpreted as a kind of geo-planetary catastrophe," Macron added.
In the video that has been circulating on social media, Brigitte Macron is seen pushing the president before he got off the presidential plane on Sunday evening.
The video shows Macron taking a step back and realizing that the plane door was open, at which point he sportsmanlikely greets the people waiting for him at the Vietnam airport.
After this moment, the couple appeared to step off the plane together, in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
President Macron also stressed that this case is a clear example of the disinformation that circulates in the age of social media. He also mentioned the case of the video made with artificial intelligence, which claimed that European leaders took cocaine during a visit to Kiev.
