It will also, symbolically, be the first state visit hosted by President Biden. It is the culmination of several much-appreciated efforts by 🇺🇸 to repair the bilateral tie, starting in Rome in Oct 2021. The Elysée says it "underlines the deep and lasting ties between 🇫🇷 and 🇺🇸"

Today Paris celebrates the 48th anniversary of its liberation, on Aug25, 1944, by the 2nd 🇫🇷 armored division led by Leclerc and the 4th 🇺🇸 Infantry Div. Did you know? There's a museum about this event! @museeML Bonus: it's free for all, and there's a bunker to visit underground!

They Asked for a Raise—Now They’re Accused of Kidnapping
