Details: Reuters has commenced a live broadcast from the entrance of the Elysee Palace, featuring a guard of honour in anticipation of President Zelenskyy's arrival. At approximately 16:20, Emmanuel Macron stepped onto the porch and waited about a minute for Zelenskyy's motorcade to arrive.

Once it did, he greeted the Ukrainian president before both proceeded into the palace.

Background:

On Wednesday, France announced Zelenskyy's visit to Paris.
On 9 October, Macron, accompanied by the French and Ukrainian defence ministers, visited Ukrainian military personnel from the 155th Brigade who are undergoing training in France's eastern region of Grand Est and wished them success.
Zelenskyy arrived in France after a several-hour discussion with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer in London, focusing on Ukraine's Victory Plan.

During his time in London, the Ukrainian president also met with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
German media reports indicated that Zelenskyy is expected to visit Berlin on Friday for talks with Chancellor Olaf Scholz and President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
