Macron’s first appointment of the day was not with his Swedish hosts but with the French community in Stockholm.
He greeted a room full of French people living in Stockholm, together with French ambassador to Sweden Etienne de Gonneville, French Minister for the Armed Forces Sebastien Lecornu, and French Higher Education and Research Minister Sylvie Retailleau.
Macron and his ministers stood on stage together during a playing of the French national anthem (pictured below).
