Quick Glance: Progress in Notre-Dame Restoration Ahead of Paris Olympics

Following a devastating fire five years ago, the restoration of Notre-Dame Cathedral is nearing completion as the world's attention turns to Paris for the Olympic Games.

Macron aims to boost the nation's morale and his government's approval ratings through the cathedral's restoration.

The reopening is set for December and is progressing as planned, as confirmed by the project's official leader.

The project's total cost of 550 million euros has been partly covered by substantial donations, including contributions from billionaires in the luxury sector.

Macron says Olympic opening ceremony on Seine River could be scrapped if security risk is too high

Quick Glance: Security Concerns Prompt Alternatives for France's Olympic Opening Ceremony

France has developed contingency plans for the July 26 Olympics opening ceremony on the river Seine in response to security concerns, as stated by President Emmanuel Macron on Monday.

Heightened security alert due to conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, along with the threat of terrorist attacks, has prompted action by the French government.

Expressing confidence, Macron believes the anticipated Games ceremony with large crowds by the Seine, involving around 160 boats embarking on a 6 km journey, will be a significant achievement.

The leadership of the United States Olympic and Paralympic teams approves of the security arrangements along the Seine for the opening ceremony, according to the team's security head, Nicole Deal.
