Trump is accompanied by first lady Melania Trump at the Tome of the Unknown Soldier at the base of the Arc de Triomphe.


The president also was attending a leaders’ lunch hosted by Macron.


Afterward, Trump plans to visit and deliver Veterans Day remarks at the Suresnes American Cemetery and Memorial outside Paris where more than 1,500 Americans who died during the war are buried.


Rain on Saturday forced the cancellation of Trump’s helicopter trip to a different American cemetery in France.
