President Emmanuel Macron hosted three-way talks with Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky and US President-elect Donald Trump in Paris on Saturday, December 7. Trump held talks with Macron inside the Elysée Palace ahead of the re-opening ceremony for Notre-Dame Cathedral, with Zelensky then arriving and immediately joining them. The trio posed for a picture but made no further public comment before starting the talks.

Where’s Biden? Isn’t he still the president?
Shouldn’t he be front and center here?

Biden was never the president.
I had a good and productive trilateral meeting with President
@realDonaldTrump
and President
@EmmanuelMacron
at the Élysée Palace.
President Trump is, as always, resolute. I thank him. I also extend my gratitude to Emmanuel for organizing this important meeting.
We all want this war to end as soon as possible and in a just way. We spoke about our people, the situation on the ground, and a just peace.
We agreed to continue working together and keep in contact. Peace through strength is possible.

I wonder if Trump knew that Macron was going to trot out this grunting grifter POS to try and talk him into continuing that debacle in Ukraine?
Zelensky’s #2 met with Trump’s COS Susie Wiles at Mar a Lago two days ago. This was a pre-arranged meeting in Paris.
That midget backstabber F’ed Trump over before. Don’t give him a chance, Trump.
President Biden is concentrating on important matters with laser like focus and maintaining his place among world leaders.
"Zelensky’s reasons for not wearing a suit are deliberate and political. His current signature green outfit is meant to project a certain image. Zelensky’s transformation from TV comedian to unlikely president and then to wartime leader has been rapid since he first took office in 2019."Note that Newsweek found it was conservatives who wonder about the costume:Source: Why Does President Volodymyr Zelensky Not Wear a Suit?
"Zelensky was denounced by conservatives on social media for not wearing a suit while visiting with President Joe Biden...."Peter Schiff wondered about that in:Source: Conservatives Rage at Zelensky for Not Wearing Suit During Biden Visit Newsweek, 21 December 2022.
Source: ‘Own A Suit?’ — Zelenskyy’s Attire During Address To Congress Questioned On Social Media Forbes, 17 March 2022.So, you see, by asking the question, you mark yourself as a conservative, according to Newsweek....
Good on you, conservative!
I sure hope so! It would be really low to spring that mincing little panhandler on Trump unannounced.
Kind of like the friend who invites you to a party and springs a salesperson on the guests. (That happened to me once.)
“To Trump it shows respect.”
Yes. If I am watching TV and an entertainer comes on dressed like a slob, I turn it off immediately. It is disrespectful to his audience.

Interesting choice of tie. Not a color PDJT usually wears.
Blue suit and gold tie. Sending a message to Putin.
I thought Zelensky was dictator for life? Why is worried about his political image given that?
Z-Man looks like he just got a visit from the Grim Reaper.
Am with ya. There are very comfortable sport suits that do not require a tie that are really sharp. At least something like that.
I have come to wearing what used to be worn in the 18th century mixed with a formal suit. The fluffy white shirt where the sleaves are out and frilly. I cant remember the name of those. But it really gets the attention because there is no tie and looks extremely formal.
Li’l Z is an actor playing a role. He’s being dressed by his stage directors/handlers to convey that message to dumb people.
Yes. It was disappointing to see Trump standing there with Zelensky. He should have made it clear to Macron that there would be no photo ops with the little con man.
