French party leader: Erdoğan ‘spins’ Macron like top Video

Leader of the French political party “The Patriots” Florian Philippot has announced that during the recent NATO summit in The Hague, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan reportedly forced French President Emmanuel Macron to “spin like a top”.

“Erdoğan is mocking Macron again at the NATO summit, firmly holding him and making him spin like a top,” Caliber.Az reports, citing Philippot’s message on X.

Énorme !

Après lui avoir tenu le doigt de longues minutes, #Erdogan s’amuse à nouveau avec #Macron au Sommet de l’OTAN en le tenant bien fort et en le faisant tourner comme une toupie ! (cf vidéo ⤵️)

Macron fait d’ailleurs une sacrée tête !…

Pourquoi tout le monde sent le… pic.twitter.com/l4SSSZD605

Commenting on a video that captures Erdoğan pushing Macron closer to the French tricolor flag, Philippot mocked Macron’s reaction, noting the French president’s grimace. Philippot added that Macron faces widespread humiliation because, in his view, the French leader “does not measure up.”
