The Day After

After Paris’s Notre-Dame Cathedral fire was brought under control and finally extinguished on Tuesday, analysis has begun to assess the damage to the 850-year-old monument. French President Emmanuel Macron, thanking the firefighters for their restless work, could finally say that “the worst had been avoided”, announcing and launching a worldwide fundraising campaign to raise money for the repairs.
