Even presidential pets show the occasional disdain for pomp and protocol.

連總統愛犬都對威風及儀節偶然展現不屑。

Nemo, the young dog adopted this year by France’s Emmanuel Macron, was caught on camera relieving himself on a gilded fireplace in the Élysée Palace behind a group of junior ministers meeting with the president.

今年被法國（總統）埃瑪紐耶爾．馬克宏收養的小狗尼莫，被攝影機拍到在一群與總統開會的權理部長背後，於愛麗榭宮一座鍍金壁爐上小解的畫面。

The footage, captured by French TV channel TF1, showed Nemo interrupting the gathering as the sound of him peeing caused those present to turn around before they started giggling.

這幕被法國電視頻道「法國電視一台」捕捉到的鏡頭顯示，尼莫打斷了這場聚會，因為牠噓噓的聲音讓在場的人轉頭後開始傻笑。

"He’s doing something quite exceptional," a laughing Macron said.

馬克宏笑說：「牠正在做某件相當了不起的事情。」

Asked by junior minister for housing Julien Denormandie whether it was something that happened often, Macron added："No ... you’ve triggered some completely unusual behavior in my dog, sorry."

負責住宅的權理部長朱力安．德諾何孟迪問道，這是否經常發生，馬克宏補充說：「不…你們觸發了我的狗狗某些完全不尋常的行為，抱歉了。」

Nemo, a black labrador-griffon cross, was adopted by Macron and his wife Brigitte from a shelter home in August.

拉布拉多犬和格林芬犬混種的黑色尼莫，8月由馬克宏和他的太太布莉姬從一家收容所收養。

The footage caused much hilarity on social media sites, where it circulated widely.（Reuters）
