“Paris' new mayor Emmanuel Grégoire officially started on March 30.”
DISPUTED
Wikipedia explicitly states the 2026 Paris municipal election occurred on March 15 with a runoff on March 22. Emmanuel Grégoire's tenure as mayor is confirmed to start in 2026, but no source mentions March 30 as his official start date. The claim's specific date is contradicted by the election timeline.

DISPUTED
