A video circulating on social media shows Macron and his delegation waiting on a sidewalk while a police officer apologises, saying they cannot cross the street because a motorcade is approaching. Trump arrived in New York City Monday evening to attend the 80th session of the UN General Assembly. The high-level General Assembly session brings world leaders and their delegations to the UN, along with severe traffic congestion and heavy security across Manhattan.
