\"There is no precedent for it, and it is at peace because we willed it and first and foremost, because Germany and France wanted it,\" Macron said.

Meanwhile, the criticism over Trump's rain check, continued.

Nicholas Soames, a member of British parliament and grandson of Winston Churchill, blasted Trump for letting rain stand in the way of honoring war heroes.

\"They died with their face to the foe and that pathetic inadequate @realDonaldTrump couldn’t even defy the weather to pay his respects to The Fallen,\" Soames tweeted.

Former Secretary of State John Kerry accused the president of insulting the memories of war veterans because of bad weather.

\"President @realDonaldTrump a no-show because of raindrops? Those veterans the president didn’t bother to honor fought in the rain, in the mud, in the snow - & many died in trenches for the cause of freedom. Rain didn’t stop them & it shouldn’t have stopped an American president,\" Kerry tweeted.
