00:09is the result French president Emmanuel Macron found himself walking through the streets of
00:15Manhattan on Monday after his motorcade was temporarily blocked to meet the way for US
00:22president Donald Trump's convoy yes the streets of New York were frozen and Macron took it all
00:29in stride even calling Trump from the sidewalk joking guess what I'm waiting in the street

00:43the most consequential announcements of macron's presidency at the UN General Assembly France
00:49officially recognized the state of Palestine joining several other European nations in a move
00:56aimed at boosting global momentum for Palestinian statehood but after almost two years of war what
01:10is what is the result once again they killed the top leaders of Hamas it works this is a great
01:17achievement but at the same time you have as many Hamas fighters as you had the first day so it doesn't

01:33drew sharp criticism the US and Israel boycotted the meeting with Secretary of State Marco Rubio calling
01:40it a gift to Hamas yet UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres reminded the world that Palestinian statehood is
