French President Emmanuel Macron met with members of Britain's royal family on Thursday. The meeting came during a visit to London to mark the 80th anniversary of General de Gaulle's call for wartime resistance. Macron was welcomed by Britain's Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, while trying hard to adhere to social distancing rules, before laying wreaths at a statue of de Gaulle. It is Macron's first trip outside France and one of the most high-profile visits by a foreign leader since countries from all over the world imposed lockdowns to control the spread of the coronavirus.
