French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte Macron arrived in Buenos Aires ahead of the G20 Summit, but there was no Argentine delegation waiting to greet them.
Macron made his way down the red carpet and stopped to greet two airport workers who comprised his makeshift guard of honor. Only when they were about to leave, Argentine officials led by Vice President Gabriela Michetti arrived to greet them, the Bubble reported.
Michetti placed the blame on the officials in charge of the protocol, saying: "We had to wait for them to tell us ‘now!’ to go to the red carpet to receive them. It was all timed, theoretically. But when they said ‘now’ they were getting into the car."
