On Wednesday, the French president, Emmanuel Macron, personally came to Marseille airport to say goodbye to Narendra Modi when the Indian prime minister took off for Washington, a gesture that symbolized the camaraderie between the two leaders.
Modi’s three -day visit to France began with a dinner organized by Macron in Paris, where they shared moments of laughter, the bonhomie that facilitates dialogue on serious problems and established the tone for subsequent commitments, said an official who travels with the first minister.
The next day (Tuesday), at the AI action summit, both leaders showed the collaborative spirit of their countries, organizing an event that highlighted the advances in artificial intelligence.
His joint appearances continued in the CEO forum in India, where they advocated the strongest economic ties between nations. “Demonstrating their close ties, they organized the forum Together, reflecting their shared vision for economic collaboration,” said a senior government official.
Friendship was further symbolized by his travel arrangements. They set up together in a caravan and flew to Marseille on the same plane, with Macron also organizing a work dinner. “Such proximity and time that is given by a leader like Macron for any world leader is rare and rarely has a precedent,” said the official.
In Marseille, the two leaders inaugurated the new Indian consulate and toured the Iter project, a significant initiative in nuclear fusion research.
The personal participation of President Macron in each event not only showed the strength of the relationship of India-France, but also established a new standard for International diplomacy.
