Indian Prime Minister Modi departs for three-day visit to France and the UAE

The Prime Minister of the Republic of India, Narendra Damodardas Modi, departed his country for an official visit to France and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Thursday. 

Narendra Modi will visit France on July 13 and 14. He will meet the President of France, Emmanuel Jean-Michel Frédéric Macron, the Prime Minister of France, Élisabeth Borne, President of National Assembly, Yael Braun-Pivet, and Presidents of the Senate.

Reportedly, the French President invited the Indian Prime Minister to be the Guest of Honour for the French National Day or Bastille Day celebrations in Paris, the capital of France.

PM Modi said in his departure statement, “This visit is special as I will join President Macron for the Bastille Day celebrations in Paris as the Guest of Honour. An Indian tri-services contingent will be part of the Bastille Day Parade, while Indian Air Force aircraft will perform a fly-past on the occasion. This year marks the 25th anniversary of our strategic partnership.”

The French president will host the private dinner for PM Modi. He will also hold a meeting with PM Modi in the presence of the French Prime Minister. The French leader will also host a State Banquet at the renowned Louvre Museum, a national art museum in Paris, France. 

The Indian Prime Minister will travel to the UAE for an official visit on July 15. He will meet His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the United Arab Emirates. He will also hold meetings with other senior UAE leaders.

PM Modi expressed his confidence that his visit to the UAE was the beginning of a new chapter in the two countries’ ‘comprehensive strategic partnership‘ also called CEPA.

In 2022, PM Modi made a stopover in the UAE, while returning from the G7 (Group of Seven) Summit. He met with the UAE President.
