PM Modi expressed his intention to engage in comprehensive discussions with the French President to advance the longstanding and enduring partnership between the two countries.

The visit holds significance as it coincides with the 25th anniversary of the strategic partnership between India and France. PM Modi emphasized the deep trust and commitment that underpin the collaboration across multiple sectors, including defence, space, civil nuclear, blue economy, trade, investment, education, culture, and people-to-people ties.
