Thailand's foreign ministry has denied a viral online claim that French President Emmanuel Macron knelt before the country's King Maha Vajiralongkorn while presenting France's highest state honours during the Thai monarch's state visit to Paris.
The claim spread after an AI-generated image circulated widely on Thai social media following the king's official visit to France, the first by a Thai monarch since 1960, marking 170 years of diplomatic relations between the two nations.
