French president criticized for drinking a bottle of beer in 17 seconds

French President Emmanuel Macron criticized by drinking a bottle of beer within 17 seconds. After the rugby match in Toulouse, France, he celebrated with the players and quickly finished the bottle of beer. This action has sparked allegations of encouraging excessive drinking. The match took place at the Stade de France stadium in Paris, the capital of the country. Macron enjoyed the match from the VIP gallery.

At the end of the match, Macron visited the dressing room of the Toulouse rugby team, where the team members invited him to join their celebration and have a drink of beer. At that time, Macron participated in the celebration, and within 17 seconds, he emptied the bottle of beer.

The video of the dressing room has already gone viral on social media and has also been broadcasted on French television.

In the video, Macron can be seen holding a bottle of beer, cheers, taking a sip, and then quickly finishing the entire bottle.

At 45 years old, Macron finished a bottle of beer within 17 seconds. While he was drinking, the enthusiastic members of the Toulouse rugby team applauded him.

Macron is known as a sports enthusiast, and visiting the dressing room of the French sports team is not something new for him. However, his beer drinking has drawn criticism.

Sandrine Rousseau, a member of the Green Party in France's parliament, tweeted that the short video clip exemplifies the shameful masculinity in politics.

In response, MP Julien Reynaud of the country's ruling party stated that when a president shares joy and enthusiasm with 23 athletes, participating in their tradition, it is not a big deal.

Bernard Bassett, president of the French Association of Addiction Consultants, told the media yesterday that the president has a responsibility regarding his behavior in terms of setting an example for health conduct.

Addiction specialist and physician William Lowenstein said, "It can be done, but not in front of the camera."

Arthur Delaporte, spokesperson for the Socialist Party in the French parliament, stated that a president cannot behave in such a manner. Even after 50 years of public health policies against excessive drinking, this behavior is not appropriate.
