If you had read the article, you would know that no, they did not.

Arcane rules dictated that world leaders be seated in alphabetical order according to the name of their country in French – the traditional language of diplomacy when the protocols were made.

The name for the United States in French is Les États-Unis d’Amérique. Meaning the US president would sit right at the front.
