Edi Rama received him on his knees and Macron embraced him.
Earlier, Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama knelt down to welcome Meloni to the European summit, and as soon as the video went viral, users wrote “Respect level 100” and “Meloni influence is real.” Her eye-catching moment with French President Emmanuel Macron during the G7 summit also went viral online, with people saying: “This is the reaction of every office meeting.” Apart from this, during a summit held in Paris, Macron showed warmth, hugging Meloni tightly and giving a ‘kiss of greeting’ on her cheeks. Meloni seemed a bit surprised and uncomfortable with this aggressive and unique way of welcoming Macron, but they later smiled and took the moment comfortably.
