Emmanuel Macron facing the French at 8 p.m.

Three months after shutting down the country and its reforms because of Covid-19, Emmanuel Macron will speak on emergency subjects linked to the crisis, starting with the third stage of deconfinement scheduled for June 22 and its main challenges: the reopening of restaurants in Île-de-France and the relaxation of rules in schools.

This speech should also allow the Head of State to start planning for the post-Covid era. One week before the end of the work of the Citizen's Climate Convention, the Head of State could notably mention his intentions on ecology, displayed as a priority for the end of the quinquennium. The proposals of the convention could be subject to a referendum, a hypothesis always considered according to those around him.

Europe 1 has therefore gathered in this article all the information known to date country by country to allow you to better prepare your future journeys on the Old continent.
