White House tree: Emmanuel Macron's sapling disappears [View all]
A tree gifted to President Donald Trump by French President Emmanuel Macron has disappeared.
The pair planted the sapling, taken from the site of a World War One battle in north-east France, during Mr Macron's state visit last week.
Mr Macron said the tree would be a reminder of "these ties that bind us".
But a Reuters photographer on Saturday took a shot of only a yellow patch of grass on the White House south lawn where the tree once stood.
