Emmanuel Macron Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Emmanuel Macron has been making waves with bold moves on child safety and global diplomacy. Just hours ago, in a video aired by BFM-TV and reported by the Associated Press, the French president demanded his government fast-track a ban on social media for kids under 15, aiming for enforcement by September at the school year start. The brains of our children are not for sale to American platforms or Chinese algorithms, he declared, backing lawmaker Laure Millers bill up for review Monday and tying it to school mobile phone bans. This echoes Australias under-16 crackdown, which axed millions of accounts, amid Frances teen screen time crisis where half log two to five hours daily per health watchdogs.

Earlier this week at Davos World Economic Forum on January 20, as detailed by the Elysee Palace and WEF transcripts, Macron delivered a fiery special address to kings, CEOs and Christine Lagarde, pushing European preference in AI, clean tech and defense amid trade wars and instability. He touted Frances G7 presidency to fix imbalances, hailed low-carbon nuclear exports at 93 TWh last year, and brought a flashy delegation of AI startups and unicorns. He fielded press, inaugurated an AI center, and chatted with bigwigs, all while sporting viral aviator sunglasses from Henry Jullien to hide a harmless burst blood vessel in his eye, joking its the Eye of the Tiger for determination, per Euronews buzz.

Tensions flared too, with Le Monde revealing Trump leaked Macrons private text puzzled over US Greenland grabs, offering a Paris G7 huddle post-Davos inviting Ukraine, Denmark, even Russia on Syria and Iran sidelines, though the Kremlin says no invite landed. No fresh business deals or social media posts popped in the last days, but this child protection push could etch Macron as a youth guardian in his bio.
