Kamala Harris is in Paris making the case that Trump's 'America First' era has ended
When President Trump traveled to France for a ceremony marking the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I, he walked alone, shunning European leaders who marched in unity along the Champs-Elysees. He then left town ahead of a peace conference intended to highlight cooperation among democracies.
Three years later, Vice President Kamala Harris, the highest-ranking American to visit France since Trump left office, is trying to make the case the United States is a team player.
She began a five-day trip here by declaring "the best kind of work" happens with "scientists from around the world coming together." Her tour of the Institut Pasteur science lab Tuesday, where Americans are working alongside Europeans to tackle COVID-19 and where her Indian-born mother researched breast cancer, was one of several events aimed at drawing a contrast with Trump's "America First" agenda.
On Wednesday evening, she met with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Élysée Palace for nearly two hours. Both leaders told reporters that they agreed it was the "the beginning of a new era” that required working together.
