US President Joe Biden meets with French President Emmanuel Macron in the Oval Office of the White House. Image: Andrew Harnik/PA PRESIDENTS JOE BIDEN and Emmanuel Macron have sat down for the centrepiece talks of a pomp-filled French state visit to Washington, with the two leaders eager to talk through the war in Ukraine, concerns about China and European dismay over Biden’s climate law.
“The choices we make today and the years ahead will determine the course of our world for decades to come,” Biden said at an arrival ceremony. In Washington, Republicans are set to take control of the House of Representatives, where party leader Kevin McCarthy has said his legislators will not write a “blank cheque” for Ukraine.
He also said major industrial nations need to do more to address climate change and promote biodiversity. The blunt comments follow another low point last year after Biden announced a deal to sell nuclear submarines to Australia, undermining a contract for France to sell diesel-powered submarines. He and his wife Brigitte went to the US bearing gifts carefully tailored to their American hosts, including a vinyl and CD of the original soundtrack from the 1966 film Un Homme Et Une Femme, which the Bidens went to see on their first date.
