France has not forgotten'

Emmanuel Macron speaks at the US cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer.
"What resonates still 75 years later is their incredible courage," Mr Macron says of the Allied troops. He praised their fortitude, that "took them thousands of miles from home to free a land they had never set foot in".
"France has not forgotten those fighters to whom we owe the right to live in freedom."
In English, Mr Macron thanked the veterans in attendance on behalf of France, to a round of applause.
