France : Deux gardes d’honneur de l’Elysée font un malaise devant Emmanuel Macron
An unprecedented situation unfolded in France yesterday, Wednesday, November 11, 2026. Two members of the Élysée Palace honor guard fell ill while French President Emmanuel Macron was receiving his Slovak counterpart, Peter Pellegrini. A video released by Reuters shows this surprising scene.
The first honor guard staggers and then collapses abruptly against one of the posts in front of the French presidential residence, as the Slovak president's vehicle entered the courtyard of the Élysée Palace.
Emmanuel Macron, who was standing a few steps away from the unfortunate man, turned and walked towards him. Members of the presidential staff got there first and quickly surrounded the honor guard, who appeared unconscious. He was then quickly evacuated.
A few seconds later, as Macron was shaking hands with Pellegrini, a second honor guard lost his balance and became unwell. He was also evacuated.
The two presidents, visibly disconcerted by the scene, finally entered the presidential building.
The Elysée press service later indicated that the two honor guards had experienced a vasovagal syncope.
