What happened to the teenager who called Emmanuel Macron ‘Manu’?
Macon scolded the teenager. He said that “Manu” is not an acceptable way to address the president during an official event. “No, you can’t do that, no, no, no, no. You’re here, at an official ceremony and you should behave. You can play the fool but today it’s the Marseillaise, the Chant des Partisans [a French Resistance song], so you call me ‘Mr President’ or ‘sir’.” This happened in 2018 during his official visit to Paris to celebrate members of the French Resistance who fought against the Nazis during World War II.
He later posted the video on his official Twitter account and captioned it “Respect is a minimum in the Republic”.
