Retening of the emergency lady: Macron thanks rescue and helpers!

In a glamorous spectacle that kept the world in suspense, the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris finally opened its doors after five years of restoration! An event that made not only the hearts of the French, but also that of the international community.

On Saturday evening it was time: the Archbishop Laurent Ulrich, Parisian, led the ceremony, which was visited by high -ranking heads of state, including French President Emmanuel Macron. Macron, who took the present with a moving speech, thanked everyone who contributed to the rescue and restoration of the iconic building. "The bells of Notre-Dame will ring again tonight," he proudly announced.

a symbol of hope

The cathedral, a masterpiece of the Gothic architecture from the 12th century, was badly damaged in 2019 by a devastating fire. Flames had turned the roof into an inferno and sent massive clouds of smoke over Paris. But the world was together: almost $ 1 billion in donations were collected to resurrect the cathedral. And the result? A breathtaking, restored building with a new tower and bright white stone decorations that sparkle in the light of the city.

The firefighters who fought tirelessly against the flames were honored with standing ovations during the opening ceremony. The word "Merci" shone on the facade of the cathedral - a heartfelt thanks to all those who campaigned for the reconstruction.

politics and diplomacy in the shadow of the cathedral

While the bells ring, Macron faces a political crisis in France. The parliament had deducted its prime minister just a few days earlier. Analysts suspect that the opening of the cathedral could be a clever distraction from the domestic turbulence. Macron took the opportunity to talk to the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj and US President Donald Trump behind closed doors. A meeting that took place in the middle of uncertainties about the future support of the United States for Ukraine.

Selenskyj described the meeting as "good and productive" and emphasized the common desire for a fair peace. "We all want this war to end as soon as possible," he wrote on X, the platform that was previously known as Twitter.

The reopening of the emergency lady is not only a triumphal moment for Paris, but also a sign of hope and cohesion in difficult times. An event that captivates the world and celebrates the unshakable strength of the human community.
