Effusive in her praise for the Indian tri-service contingent, which took part in the Bastille Day Parade on Friday, a member of the French Parliament, Anne Genetet, said she was “quite impressed” with what the Indian soldiers demonstrated at the National Day celebrations on Friday.
“I was quite impressed by the presence of Indian soldiers here for our own parade, for National Day, for Bastille Day …very impressive to see them. It was really a thrilling moment,” Genetet said. She also met Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was the Guest of Honour at the Bastille Day Parade.
“I also met Prime Minister Narendra Modi. I met him previously in 2018. He struck me as a very impressive PM. He has a strength that is very uncommon and a determination to convince people interacting with him, which I think is very impressive,” the French MP said.
