India–France Relations in an Era of Crisis | French Ambassador Thierry Mathou

In this session, we are honored to host H.E. Thierry Mathou, Ambassador of France to India, for an in-depth exploration of the burgeoning partnership between Paris and New Delhi.

As the world navigates a "polycrisis", from climate change and economic instability to shifting geopolitical alignments, the India-France relationship has emerged as a cornerstone of stability and strategic autonomy. This discussion examines the evolving trajectory of these bilateral ties and why both nations are becoming increasingly indispensable to one another.
