president macron thanked the veterans. said we understand the debt we owe america and the debt we owe you. find the veterans who are there, singled out five to make them knights of the legion of honor. he said he hoped our generations would be worthy of the sacrifice they made. again they pointed out the deep need for this kind of commitment to freedom and democracy, particularly in the hour the dark forces are once again resurgent in europe and, in fact, across the atlantic as well. this was very, very important messages delivered by both presidents and by the presence of those veterans who have secured our future and our presence here today. >> what stands out to me is the gratitude that's been shown. we continue to see it before us as we look at more pictures. president trump going through the crowd thanking as many people as he can. the french president emmanuel macron practically diving into the crowd with a huge smile on his face. hugs from the frenchy people as possible. jim acosta, you have heard so many of preside

macron has to look strong. france does not have a rich history of reelecting presidents and macron would like to get reelected. we talked about this last time the president was in france and that was back on veterans day. the president has got low approval ratings, macron's approval ratings are far lower. donald trump's approval ratings are great in comparison to emmanuel macron so there is a split politically between them. macron had the statement that we need a true european army because we can no longer rely on the united states for the defense of europe but for the most part the two leaders to get along very well. they will clearly talk about trade and economics but i think the bigger picture here is talking about national security. when you have the threat from iran is what to do about that. that will be a big topic of discussion. north korea will be a big topic of discussion. nato is always a big topic of discussion and looking at the 75th anniversary of nato taking place in the context of the president i

|j trump and macron. i think they are speaking to the press. i think what isa speaking to the press. i think what is a very important thing, especially for the young generation, these are actual heroes, these vetera ns, these are actual heroes, these veterans, is that a lot of things we ta ke veterans, is that a lot of things we take for granted, were precisely protected by these guys. and a lot of these veterans, i think you told it during a speech came back for the very first time after the war. they put their lives at risk for our country and for liberty. i think for i think for a young generation, and for france, it is important to see, these veterans dart precisely thanks to their actions,. yeah, i will. i would certainly recommend that. this was a great unifying situation. it has probably been seldom in history anything like it. but especially when you heard about the waves of people coming in, knowing that they would be killed, most of them. just an incredible thing, and them. just an incredible thing, and the result was, as many people

the french president, emmanuel macron, got up out of his seat to go over to say thank you because macron knew that he owed private thicket a debt of gratitude and you can see the president. >> hugging him. >> president macron assured them that france has not forgotten their bravery and the ceremony concluded with a flyover of both french and u.s. military aircra aircraft. the same colors as the united states. >> joining us now, jim acosta, cnn chief, white house correspondent on the ground with the president. he was there in normandy and in fact he's still there as we can see. we have david gregory and dana bash. jim acosta, you're there on the ground. tell us about this remarkable morning that we watched. >> reporter: it was a remarkable, striking moment here remembering the heros of d-day 75 years later. as you were just talking about a few moments ago, president trump and emmanuel macron, the president of france, they both gave some very stirring tributes to the men who were gathered here, part of a dwindling number of the greatest generation on hand to mark the 75th anniversary of d-

macron is talking about institutions. >> and president macron had that line, admiral stavridis, which i would love for you to weigh in on this, where it seemed to me that this nation, america, is at its greatest when fighting for the freedom of others. admiral stavridis, did you also read that as an elbow to the guy, to the other leader next to him on stage? >> well, i'm not sure it was necessarily a hard elbow, but it was certainly, i feel, a very accurate comment. and we ought to remember, in addition to all the great things others have said that france has been always our oldest ally, our first ally. when we fought for our independence, it was france who unlocked the battle of yorktown and allowed us to walk into the world of independent nations. and by the way, it's not just france we ought to remember. the troops of 14 different nations crossed those beaches with us, many of whom were occupied by the nazis at that time. so i think there's a wonderful message here. and i think macron gets it right, that we're in the right place when we're part of these large alliances and coalitio

macron: thank you. >> [indiscernible] we wereump: i just -- talking about the depth and the number of people killed. we had -- they called them the guides. they were guiding us.they were telling us what happened and when . and they talked about the first wave came in, and 92% of the people in the first way were killed. and in the second wave came in, an 80% were killed. and then the third wave and fourth wave, and then i guess they said the sixth ways, they broke through -- wave, they broke through, like a dam. and it was so incredible and so fascinating. and then you talk about bravery. 92% of theou think, people were killed in the first wave, so it kept going down, down, down, and then they would break through. it was a lot of courage and a lot of heartbreak. but an incredible victory. one of the most important victories, wouldn't you say? you might want to respond to that. pres. macron: you're right. all the scenes were described. i think what is very important, especially for the young generation, h

macron and mrs. macron have atensded. earlier in the day they were at gold beach with theresa may where they have started building a war memorial to the 20,000 brits who died in france during the summer of '44. and the prime minister, who officially resigns tomorrow said -- had a very emotional speech. and she said the only two words i can say is thank you to all of you. and, martha, you know, the thing about president trump's speech and he and macron are going to meet later on today for a private working lunch even though they had some feuds in the past over climate change and trade in iran. the thing about the president's speech was how powerful it was with just the names. and you mentioned private picket, that was the only time he ad-libbed from his prepared remarks. he went over and shook his hands and embraced him and came back to the microphone and said tough guy. but we all know the story of d-day because we have seen it in the history books and seen it in the movies. but those were actors. these are the real guys.

. >> a beautiful and powerful speech by france's president macron. he talked about how the promise of normandy will be supported by the people of france with all of their hearts. they will remember what we owe to our homeland, what we owe to democracy, and what we owe to the world. david ignatius, for any american who has not had the blessing to visit these beaches and talk to these people, the phrase that really rings the truest to me is france has not forgotten and you feel that every time you drive into normandy, whether it's the fluttering of american flags or the french people coming up to you and thanking you for what your country did 75 years ago. >> it was a powerful speech by macron, i thought worthy of this 75th anniversary of d-day. that phrase, joe, france has not forgotten, he expressed in so many ways, kissing the veterans who so bravely came ashore here. i thought what was wonderful about that speech was the way he expressed the empathy he feels as france's president and i think the french people feel for the americans who came here to

further details of the third program >>> president trump is due in normandy this hour to join emmanuel macron and theresa may to commemorate the d-day landings >>> well, let's get right in to one of the top corporate stories of the day and that is around fiat chrysler. as you can see here beside me, the feuate shares are opening 0.5% and that's after the merger was abandoned they suggested to renault. they blamed the french government for thwarting the deal and saying that political conditions in france would not create an environment where the deal could take place. now, this would have created the third largest automaker in the world. so now investors asking what happens now for fiat chrysler? and i'm very pleased to say that we have a guest joining us in auto -- an auto expert to help us make sense of this news so we have got anna marie baisden. thank you for joining us this morning. so we have now heard that the deal fell apart due to the french government really meddling here. first question to you, is the deal really dead >> hi, joanna. i think it is. it was always going to be difficult

taking pa rt trump and president macron taking part in that. at around 11 o'clock this morning prince charles will be arriving for that further service of remembrance at the commonwealth g raves remembrance at the commonwealth graves at the bayeux cemetery. the minute's silence will happen at three o'clock this afternoon. at 20 past four we are taking to the skies with the parachute display and then a fly past a little later on today by the red arrows as well. then the day will end with a concert here at seven o'clock this evening, and it concludes with a fireworks display expected to start at around 10pm. so a lot happening through the day today and of course it started here arromanches, and behind me in the square there is the dutch military parade taking place. the dutch military taking part in that, and big crowds here today. we saw the event at the bayeux cathedral, and at ver—sur—mer as well, but this really feels like the focus of where many of the events happened today. you will see many of the veterans and those involved walking th

[ applause ] and to our president and commander-in-chief donald

trump is set to receive a new friendship tree from french president emmanuel macron. macron promised to send the new oak tree after the tree he gave him during last year's state visit died. he says the death of the tree does not symbolize the topsy-turvy relationship between the two countries. >> trevor: un-uh, macron. you said that tree was a metaphor, so then it's a metaphor. yeah. you can't now say the tree was just a tree. that's not how symbols work. it's like in grade school, when you and your best friend get friendship bracelets, yeah, and 10 years later, he's not wearing it because he got married and his wife thinks it's weird. you know what's weird, kevin? you deserting your best friend! ( laughter ) and, yeah, it is a little sad the friendship tree died, but at the same time, it did last longer than most people do in trump's white house. so that's impressive. ( cheers and applause ) yeah, give it up for that tree. i bet-- i bet this time macron's going to give trump better instructions on how to keep the tree alive. he's going to be like, "okay, this time, d

macron would not back down. initially it was thought they had a good relationship, but we will see where it is now. alix: we are also going to see what happens in the markets after the ecb rate decision. banks are going to be able to get two-year long-term loans for -30 basis points. it appears like the market doesn't like it that much. higherr yields moving due to selloff across the board, particularly in spain. withg up, more on the ecb manager.ortfolio this is bloomberg. ♪ ♪ i think china wants to make a deal badly. i think mexico wants to make a deal badly. alix: president trump says progress was made with mexico, but the country has got to step up. china injects 5 billion yuan into its economy as trump threatens more tariffs. the central bank says it will keep rates at present levels for the first half of 2020 and unveiled its third long-term loan program for the ecb. withdraws its offer for renault. david: welcome to "bloomberg daybreak." we just had the ecb decision about four minutes ago. it was some

macron is an internationalist. the truth is, it was the western democratic forces, an internationalforce, was the western democratic forces, an international force, that was the western democratic forces, an internationalforce, that won was the western democratic forces, an international force, that won the second world war. i think it is a little bit worrying, that the rise of nationalism is rearing its ugly head again and i think we should cherish those international organisations. as far as i am concerned, macron is 100% preaching to the converted. it is very important to keep hold of those. in unity we have peace. infraction, it is easy to go toward again. one of the things the second world war shows us is the fragility of peace. we have had long years of peace since the second world war, and thank goodness for that. yet we must never take it for granted. it is important at these anniversaries we pause to consider our situation today and reflect back on history. the point of history is not that human behaviour

this is macron opportunity to step in to that bridge. let's look at the ft, interesting story and a surprise because it's a faith people may not know, but she's a big player and she is being touted for bigger things that i'm going tojohn the list. this is sharon white who is about to ta ke this is sharon white who is about to take the house edge on the list, really tough time for retailers up and on the country, she was on everyone's favourite list for being governor of the bank of england, she was seen as someone governor of the bank of england, she was seen as someone that had academic experience and worked in the treasury she was a strong option and writing off calm and very respected as a highly competent, she would be the they have gone with someone with a knotin they have gone with someone with a knot in a typical salary. you don't have a basement full of gold. you get a good staff discount. i think it will be really interesting to see how she will tackle it. she is well liked as a manager. uk car industry is having a bad time. wha

trump loves these ceremonies and macron gets into them. he has a soft spot for this kind of mingling with veterans, the big pop in ceremony. both of them were where they wanted to be. it was a lot easier for them to focus on shared french-american history and on the areas where they are together. let's not forget france is .rguably america's closest ally they cooperate very closely with africa against islamic groups there. they are together in syria and toq and trump did pay homage french soldiers and what they're doing in those joint operations. i felt today was going back to another meeting they had at a steel day -- at the bastille day parade trump enjoyed in 2017. i thought there was more the spirit of that day then it has when they have been sniping at each other. many thanks for the reporting from paris. now let's find out what is going on in the markets with taylor riggs. taylor: we are seeing a divergence. mostly green on the screen. cap and some of the other -- tech and some of the other sectors more sensitive to trade continuing

he put aside his differences with emmanuel macron. there was no talk about domestic politics or how he views things on the world stage. this was purely a tribute to the veterans, soldiers and the fallen from d-day 75 years ago. john was talking about the moment where private picket. that was just a moment that captured everybody's hearts here in normandy. just walking around here on this sacred ground, it is palpable. you feel an energy coming from this place that reminds you of just these enormous sacrifices that were made so many years ago. when you saw president trump paying tribute to private picket and emmanuel macron going to his aid during the ceremony, it felt as though private picket was america's private at that moment. it was just a remarkable scene here to see both of these leaders who sometimes disagree with each other and sometimes you see their frosty relations on display. put aside that. the politics was just washed aside, put to the side during what was an extraordinary moment as they both recognized the bravery and h

the picture with president macron and trumps is telling. they are about to become adverse areas in a relatively heated set of trade tensions because my child is set to push ahead on tariffs. anything coming into the us is likely to be hit with the tax. what does that mean in the postwar consensus when these are shared values and we have each other‘s backs? we are all nato members? german companies, they were superseded by the chinese a few years ago, they saw china as the gift that keeps on giving, this massive growing market. half a billion people coming spenders, moving into the chinese middle class, now they are freaking out and they are going the complete reverse and saying china is a threat, looking to buy up their middle sized companies which are the engine room of their economy. all of these weird things going on and with trumps and china. the telegraph. a lovely picture. this is a veteran having a whale of a time. it is not true that all the nice girls never say that. we we re all the nice girls never say that. we were commenting

emmanuel macron spoke of the fa ct trump. emmanuel macron spoke of the fact that the institutions of world order, the united nations, he said, nato, the beginnings of what became of the european union, he said these all sprung from the rubble of world war ii. and it was very precious indeed, very important to cling onto these, to nurture the growing friendships between allies and formerfoes. friendships between allies and former foes. there was friendships between allies and formerfoes. there was perhaps no greater signal of that on the streets of caen, the city council put up bunting. it features former co—flags, the british flag, the american flag, the french flag in the german flag. —— it features four flags. that's all from normandy for 110w. flags. that's all from normandy for now. i will be back before the end of the programme. now it is back to reeta with the rest of the news. the car maker ford has confirmed plans to close its engine plant in bridgend next year. the company blamed huge changes in the industry an
