BILATERAL MEETING WITH HER EXCELLENCY CATHERINE COLONNA, MINISTER OF EUROPE AND FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF FRANCE

BILATERAL MEETING WITH HER EXCELLENCY CATHERINE COLONNA, MINISTER OF EUROPE AND FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF FRANCE 

 

I had a bilateral meeting with my counterpart, Her Excellency Catherine Colonna, Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs of France, in Paris on 02 June 2023.

During the meeting, we took stock of the progress of existing bilateral cooperation and explored more comprehensive and new potential collaboration.

We agreed that bilateral interaction and cooperation in various sectors, such as education, defence, trade, investment, and health, should continue to be enhanced.

We also discussed efforts to address regional and international issues of mutual interest, particularly France's commitment in deepening its development partnership with ASEAN and the worrying situation in Myanmar. We are also supportive of a free, open and inclusive Indo-Pacific region where trade and commerce could prosper.

I welcome the verbal and written statement made by the Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs of France regarding the official position of the French Government, which fully supports Malaysia's sovereignty and territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders. This further refutes the attempts of any parties who challenge and deny the sovereignty of Malaysia.

My working visit to France was a success in further enhancing the close bilateral relations between Malaysia and France and in protecting our sovereignty and national interests.
