New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday called up French President-elect Emmanuel Macron to congratulate him on his poll victory and said he looked forward to work with him to further deepen the bilateral cooperation.
“Called President @EmmanuelMacron to convey my congratulations on his victory in the French Presidential election,” Modi tweeted.
“I look forward to working with President @EmmanuelMacron to further deepen cooperation between India and France,” he added.
Modi had yesterday greeted Macron for his electoral win in a tweet.
39-year-old Macron has created history by becoming the youngest president in France.
Unknown to voters before his turbulent 2014-16 tenure as France’s pro-business economy minister, Macron took a giant gamble by quitting Socialist President Francois Hollande’s government to run as an independent in his first campaign.
