Hollande is in New York for a meeting of the UN General Assembly, but he had perhaps had enough of diplomats on Sunday.

The president caused a stir when he turned up at the “Best of France” event in Times Square, which is highlighting the best France has to offer.

“This is the only thing they will be talking about from my trip,” he is reported to have told the troupe.
