Marine One landed near Wall Street, and Trump&#8217;s motorcade was escorted by the New York Police Department, which <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >temporarily closed roads<\/a> for the convoy. During the delay, Macron was recorded speaking with a police officer and later on the phone, humorously noting that he was waiting in the street as the roads were closed for trump. Passersby stopped to take pictures with Macron as he walked.<\/p>\n<p>Trump arrived at the United Nations headquarters to address the General Assembly and was scheduled to meet with several world leaders and attend a reception later that day. The motorcade incident happened shortly after Macron announced France&#8217;s recognition of Palestine as a state at the UN, a move similar to recent recognitions by the UK and Canada. The Trump governance expressed concern that such recognition could disrupt ongoing hostage negotiations involving Hamas.<\/p>\n<p>The article also includes reactions to the recognition of Palestine, noting that Hamas called the acknowledgments a &#8220;victory&#8221; as their attack on southern Israel in 2023. The Washington Examiner sought comments from the White House and the French Embassy. <br \/> <!DOCTYPE html><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Macron forced to walk NYC when Trump&rsquo;s motorcade blocks his<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2237936\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>French President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/3818941\/france-recognizes-palestinian-state-united-nations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Emmanuel Macron<\/a> was captured on video walking the streets of New York City, seemingly blocked by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3818511\/un-secretary-general-prepares-trump-return-general-assembly\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">President Donald Trump&rsquo;s motorcade<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Marine One landed in New York City&rsquo;s Wall Street landing zone at 8 p.m. Monday.
