French President Macron in U.S. for Three-Day State Visit
---------------------------------------------------------

French President Emmanuel Macron kicks off a three-day state visit today
with a sightseeing trip to George Washington's Mt. Vernon estate in
Virginia, where he'll be joined by President Trump and first lady
Melania Trump. Macron is reportedly planning to press Trump to keep U.S.
troops in Syria, and will pressure him not to pull out of the Iran
nuclear deal, as he's repeatedly threatened to do.
