French President Emmanuel Macron will address the German parliament at 13:30 Paris time and meet with Chancellor Angela Merkel, as the two present a united front in countering global turmoil stoked by US President Donald Trump.

As World War I is remembered, which ended a century ago this month, Macron has repeatedly invoked its horrors to drive home his message that rising nationalism is again destabilising the world.

He has suggested building a future European army as a symbol of a united continent.
