The organizers of the 2024 Paris Olympics have planned to organize the traditional opening ceremony on July 26 in the Seine. On Monday, the President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron for the first time outlined the outlines of “plans B and C”.

We would be naive if we didn't think about it. Our top priority is ensuring the safety of all our athletes, the wider entourage, and our supporters, said Andy Anson, the head of the British Olympic Association, in an interview broadcast by Sky News on Wednesday. The opening ceremony "is a high-risk environment, and it must be managed accordingly, but the French are very, very aware of this,' said Anson.
