Obama Endorses French Presidential Candidate Emmanuel Macron

EXCERPT:

OBAMA: "I've always been grateful for the friendship of the French people. I'm not planning to get involved in many elections now that I don't have to run for office again, but the French election is very important to the future of France and the values that we care so much about. Because of how important this election is, I also want you to know that I am supporting Emmanuel Macron to lead you forward."
