Strange.
German national news leading this evening with the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
The piece included parts of the speeches by Macron & Biden, & an interview with Scholz. Some focus also on Zelensky being there, but not Russia.
And they mentioned that hundreds of veterans who had come “across the Atlantic” to mark the day.
But nothing at all about the country just across the Channel or Canada, who together landed just as many soldiers on the Normandy beaches on 6 June 1944 as the US 🤨
