On August 25, 1944, back in Paris, Charles de Gaulle gave his famous speech "Paris outragé! Paris brisé! Paris martyrisé! mais Paris libéré!" at the Hôtel de Ville. An impromptu speech celebrating the city's liberation and calling for national unity.
From August 19 to 25, 1944, Paris was finally liberated from German occupation. It was the triumph of the Allies and fighting France, and the establishment of General de Gaulle as leader of a liberated and victorious France.
In his latest solemn address to the French people on June 14, Emmanuel Macron announced “new and strong decisions for equal opportunity”, affirming France will be “intransigent against racism, anti-Semitism, and discriminations”.
