President Erdoğan met with French President Emmanuel Macron in The Hague as part of the NATO Leaders Summit. During the meeting, Macron's attempts to assert dominance through body language were ineffective against Erdoğan's resolute demeanor. A similar situation had occurred previously at a summit in Tirana, where Erdoğan had notably responded to Macron's psychological dominance attempts.
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and French President Emmanuel Macron met on the sidelines of the NATO Leaders Summit held in The Hague, Netherlands. During the meeting, Macron, who tried to assert dominance over Erdoğan with body language, painfully experienced hitting a hard wall.

It is remembered that in a summit held a few months ago in Tirana, the capital of Albania, Macron had also tried to establish psychological superiority by placing his hand on President Erdoğan's hand. Erdoğan, on the other hand, held Macron's finger for seconds and did not let go.
