Emmanuel Macron sings Les Champs-Élysées by Joe Dassin. At the end of a debate on democracy with students in Sweden, the President of the Republic sang, on stage, the words of this classic of French song.

“In the sun, in the rain. At noon or midnight, there is everything you want on the Champs.-Élysees,” crooned Emmanuel Macron, who, between Sweden in recent days and Brussels on Thursday, is perhaps homesick.
