Macron to mark appeal that gave birth to French Resistance
LONDON (AP) — French leader Emmanuel Macron is set to mark Charles De Gaulle’s famed World War II appeal to resist the Nazis. The French president is traveling to London to mark the day that De Gaulle delivered his defiant broadcast urging his nation to fight on despite the fall of France 80 years ago. In a reflection of the importance of the event, the trip marks Macron’s first international trip since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic took hold. He is eager to associate himself with the World War II hero. Prince Charles and his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, will receive Macron at his Clarence House home with a Guard of Honor.
