WE WILL GIVE AN ADDITIONAL DIMENSION TO OUR STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP

The strategic partnership between India and France, which will complete 25 years next year, has not just deepened but also considerably expanded India-France relations since it was announced in 1998. Regarded as one of India's most reliable partners, ties with France, particularly in defence, have gained as much salience as New Delhi's relations with Moscow. That was evident when CATHERINE COLONNA, France's new foreign minister, made her maiden visit to India on September 13-15 after she was appointed in May 2022. In an exclusive interview to Group Editorial Director RAJ CHENGAPPA, Colonna spoke candidly on a range of key issues, from bilateral ones that included enhancing defence cooperation, to global concerns, such as how to join forces to ensure peace in the Indo-Pacific region, how to resolve the Russia-Ukraine war, combating terror in all forms and the role India can play when it becomes president of the G20 later this year.
