He furr ded that France and India would continue working on regional peace, tackling terrorism and respecting territorial sovereignty. Macron also commended India’s role in shaping Paris agreement and called for India to have a bigger stake in global issues. 

2. A diplomatic win as UAE ditches Imran

In early January this year, Pakistan PM Imran Khan personally chauffered Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to his residence, when latter arrived in Pakistan on a one-day visit in attempts to suggest friendly relations between two leers. However, despite obvious political gimmick, his overtures fell flat as PM Modi obtained support of UAE on J&K special status issue. Moreover, he received UAE’s highest civilian award ‘Order of Zayed’ for his efforts to boost bilateral ties between both countries. past recipients of award include Russian President Vlimir Putin, Queen Elizabeth II, and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
