All major world leaders speak their own language on stage even if they know English. It's a sign of dignity.
The leader should know somali. Everything else can be done with a translator.
Putin and Macron know English but have you heard them speak it in these international things?
Not every leader speak their own language. Most of them speak use either English, French, Spanish or Arabic. Including those with other own native languages. But this besides my point.
I don’t honestly think much of what language we use on the global stage in international forums, but the more languages our politicians (and public) speak, I believe that it will improve our diplomacy and ties with other countries. This is my personal take.
