'A meeting between two friends': PM Modi meets French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris

| @indiablooms | May 05, 2022, at 06:18 am

Paris/IBNS: Prime Minister Narendra Modi met French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris on Wednesday and discussed issues of bilateral and mutual interests.

"PM @narendramodi and President @EmmanuelMacron meet in Paris. This meeting will add momentum to the India-France friendship," the Prime Minister's Office tweeted along with a photograph of PM Modi and Macron hugging each other.

Macron held an informal meeting with PM Modi before the delegation-level talks at the Elysee Palace - the official residence of the French President.

"A meeting between two friends. An opportunity to translate the renewed mandate of President @EmmanuelMacron into a renewed momentum for the India-France Strategic partnership," Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Arindam Bagchi tweeted.

The visit to Paris is PM Modi's final leg of his three-nation European tour.

PM Modi is among the first few world leaders to meet President Macron after his re-election last week.

His visit comes amid the Ukraine crisis, which has united the majority of Europe against Russia.
