World leaders, including President Biden and UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, gathered in Normandy to mark the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings, a pivotal moment in World War II.
The commemorations began with a poignant ceremony at 7:25am local time in Arromanches-les-Bains, mirroring the exact moment the invasion started in 1944. President Biden, in his speech, subtly criticized isolationist policies, emphasizing that 'isolationism is not the answer,' in a nod towards former President Trump's stance. Veterans, the few who are still with us, paid their respects at the American cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, remembering their fallen comrades.
The ceremonies underscored the importance of unity and remembrance in facing global challenges.
