To concede: She yanks him too hard. I'd be angry.
Then again: I'm not Bishop of Rome at Christmas, she's desperate, & his double-slapping her was petty (if not racist).
Longer video, which I could not find, is said to be worse - Francis shakes many hands but turns away from her specially. Demeaning.
Pettiness has been rumored with Francis, for years. Pope St. John Paul II, or even Pope Benedict XVI, if grabbed too hard, might have at least smiled & waited for his guards who were right there.
Here is JP2 forgiving & comforting his assassin, Mehmet Ali Agca.

Sorry, JP2 & Francis are not alike.
ps. ⬆ Just to illustrate things.
To repeat what truly bothers me:
[CIA-backed, and ] In covid, Francis was destructively pro-lockdown & pro-mandate - he was fine with churches closed (but bars & porn shops left open), Catholics denied important rites, people forced to die isolated from family visitors, people locked in homes & driven to suicide
Could add: When Biden admin targeted USA Catholics who merely spoke at school board meetings - targeted them for monitoring, FBI raids, lawfare etc. Francis, that we know of, said nothing against it ever.
So I conclude, Francis pattern was:
[he] did not care for human rights - whenever it mattered
