• The French people were not interested in the Olympic Games just 100 days before the event.
• The disinterest is such that even the fake news about a possible postponement of the Games did not get much impact.
• The current political crisis has saturated the media space, overshadowing the sports event and its athletes.
• President Emmanuel Macron has been accused of exacerbating this crisis, casting a shadow over the Olympic Games.
• Macron tried to generate enthusiasm and alleviate concerns related to terrorism, with the idea of an 'Olympic truce'.

Conclusion: The current situation has shadowed the anticipation towards the Olympic Games, but it remains to be seen if the passing of the torch through Paris this weekend manages to renew interest and the spirit of the Games.
