Paris: A French Parliamentarian has said Anne Genetet praised the participation of the Indian tri-service contingent in the Bastille Day event and said she was “quite impressed” with what the Indian soldiers demonstrated at the National Day celebrations on Friday.
“I was quite impressed by the presence of Indian soldiers here for our own parade, for National Day, for Bastille Day …very impressive to see them. It was really a thrilling moment,” Genetet was quoted as saying by ANI.
She also met Indian PM Narendra Modi who was the Chief Guest of the event.
