The subtitles that I saw initially were in auto-generated English, but reloading the page gave me auto-generated French. You can, of course, choose to have YouTube auto-translate to your choice of language from a long list.

The above link goes to after it has ended.

Manually, if one goes back to -2hr 50 minutes, President Macron arrives.

For around half an hour, President Macron and Madame Macron welcome people, one being President Trump and one Prince William.

At around -2 hrs 06 minutes the bell starts being rung.

Then the Clergy arrive and the Archbishop knocks on the door with his crozier.

After a while he enters.

At a little after -7 minutes there is the French National Anthem.

Please add notes for any other interesting parts that you find.

Donald Trump is currently President-elect. He doesn’t become President until the presidential inauguration which is scheduled to take place on January 20th, 2025.

That reply is correct.

However, a person who is either the current President or a former President has the honorific President.

Following Alfred's post I found that there are English subtitles.

Regarding the Crown of Thorns, there is a sequence in the above video where the place where the Crown of Thorns is now displayed is shown and discussed.
