France is part of the U.S.-led coalition that has been carrying out airstrikes against Islamic State targets in Syria and Iraq since late 2017. A large majority of those strikes this year have taken place in Syria, where the militants have their de facto capital in the city of Raqqa.

Trump and Macron are both in their first year in office and have shown policy differences when it comes to international efforts to combat climate change. But they also share certain goals, such as reducing the number of workers in their respective governments.

A senior Trump administration official described the relationship between the presidents as "very positive."

On Friday, Trump and his wife, Melania, will attend the annual Bastille Day parade, which will include both French and U.S. military personnel.

"The fact that we participated in such a major way in World War I, side by side with the French, is a clear parallel to what we're doing today," the senior administration official said. "We still live in a dangerous world. We still live in a world that has many, many threats."

美国总统川普星期四抵达巴黎，与法国总统马卡龙举行反恐会谈，庆祝法国国庆日和美国参加一战100周年纪念。

一年前，川普曾因恐怖分子在巴黎的活动，形容巴黎“实在是太失控，太危险”。他不久前还曾表示，伊斯兰国对巴黎的袭击，削弱了巴黎作为世界级游览城市的地位。
