Did you miss the news this early morning? We’ve put together a recap to help you see things more clearly.

Emmanuel Macron continues his tour of France with the aim of talking about things other than retreats. This Tuesday, the Head of State will be in Ardeche to make announcements about the relocation of drug production. This trip to the site of the Aguettant pharmaceutical laboratory in Champagne will be the first in a series of presidential meetings devoted to strengthening French industrial and technological sovereignty, which will continue until next Monday.

It wasn’t really a secret anymore. Emmanuel Macron confirmed on Monday that the Ukrainian army’s counter-offensive against Russian forces had begun. This should last “several weeks, even months”, he estimated alongside the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Polish President Andrzej Duda at the Elysée. The president brought together his partners in the format of the Weimar Triangle, a platform for regular summit meetings between the three countries.

Saturday already Volodymyr Zelensky announced that “counter-offensive and defensive actions” were taking place in Ukraine, without specifying if it was the great counter-offensive prepared for several weeks. Seven villages have also been taken back from Russian forces in the south and east of the country, the Ukrainian government said Monday evening.

It’s a big blow to the head for the capital’s football club. Kylian Mbappe indeed informed the PSG that he would not activate the additional year at his disposal to extend until 2025. The decision of his star striker, announced on Monday by mail and revealed by the daily The team, forces Paris to consider leaving this summer to recover transfer compensation. However, the soap opera can still experience many twists and turns. The deadline for Mbappé to make his choice is indeed July 31.
