STORYLINE:
French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte officially welcomed Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan to France where the group watched a military ceremony at the Invalides in Paris on Monday.
Xi arrived in France on Sunday for a two-day state visit that is expected to focus both on trade disputes and diplomatic efforts to convince Beijing to use its influence to move Russia toward ending the war in Ukraine.
Earlier in the day, Xi joined a meeting at the Elysee palace with Macron and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
Xi’s European trip, the first in five years, seeks to rebuild relations at a time of global tensions.
After France on Monday and Tuesday, he will head to Serbia and Hungary.
