In France, Belgium and the United Kingdom, among others, we commemorate the end of the First World War. On November 11, 1918, Remembrance Day, the armistice is signed. Nearly ten million soldiers and at least six million civilians were killed in four years
In France, President Macron led the ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier under the Arc de Triomphe. Dozens of heads of state and government are present, including US President Trump and Russian President Putin, as well as Prime Minister Rutte. More than two thousand agents are on their feet.
"We must not harm the principles that have been championed," said Macron, who called on world leaders present to cooperate. "Our predecessors fought for our peace and this forces us to think about the future."
The testimonies written by soldiers on November 11, 1918 were read by high school students in French, German and English.
