Even years after, I have every “difficulty” not crying when seeing and hearing this exceptional tribute to my country, all the more so coming from the greatest country on earth. We never will forget this.

Seeing Britons playing our national anthem in public and making a standing ovation is a strong symbolic gesture. As a Frenchman, I am touched. Thank you...👍👏💚
