Donald Trump (left), and Volodymyr Zelenskyy (right) arrive in Paris to meet Emmanuel Macron (center), who will teach them better posture. In the press conference Macron has been quoted "By the end of the week, these two young men will stand up straight and proud, just as a leader should! Just like you see me doing now!"
It's kinda funny how standing lessons obviously teach politicians they can't have their hands in their pockets, but then they don't know what to do with them and end up looking awkward. Macron looks normal here because his hands are doing something. I know this sounds weird, but look at them, it's the arms. It's like when you see people uncomfortable on a stage, it's always the arms.
the answer to what to do with your arms is simple: finger guns
In some countries, this would have bad connotations. For example: the finger gun gesture has a bad connotation within Brazil, as it was the hand gesture that Bolsonaro used throughout his campaign and his government.
ah, good to know
