Emmanuel Macron

We decided together to deal with artificial intelligence and the global regulation of conversation.

We are doing it.

Last year in France, during our action summit,

now in India.

So I think we clearly delivered concrete results because it's based

With all our differences, because we are different as countries, as civilizations, our people, but I have indeed this great relation with your prime minister and our countries have this great relation.

Why?

Because we have, beyond these differences, similarities.

A taste for precisely cultural innovation and diversity, I would say.

When you speak to a French person, I mean...

The relationship with language, with multilingualism and respect of francophony is super important.

When I see your prime minister, he speaks in Hindu and I know the diversity of your languages.

It creates something very special because we don't like uniformity.

Second, we don't want to be dependent on one of the two big powers.

We want to have a good relation with the US and China.

We have different relationship, by the way, with both of them, between India and France.

But it was the whole rational of the Indo-Pacific approach, meaning a third way.

Something which is, I will not be confrontational with you, but I don't want to be dependent on you.

Let me build my own future in full respect.

And based on that, this is the fact that we really believe, both India and France, that democracy, rule of law, multilateralism, delivering concrete results, makes sense.
