French President Emmanuel Macron publicly refuted a map published by US President Donald Trump that depicted the French archipelago of Saint Pierre and Miquelon flying the American flag. Speaking on Saturday in Paris, Macron stated that it is "an evidence" that the islands, located off the coast of North America, are a part of France.
The diplomatic disagreement stems from the controversial map released by Trump, which visually incorporated the French territory into the United States. Macron's swift response underscores Paris's commitment to defending its territorial sovereignty and overseas possessions against external cartographic claims.
