France's Macron To Make State Visit To Spain On September 29-30
The centrist French leader will be welcomed by Spain's leftist Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez on September 30, while a banquet will be held in Macron's honour with King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia, the government said.
It will be Macron's first official visit to Spain since January 2023 and the first state visit by a French president to the country since 2009, according to the French presidency.
"The two countries share... a common commitment to protecting democracy and young people, particularly in the face of the challenges posed by social media and artificial intelligence," Macron's office said.
Both leaders will also address "the major European and international issues, in particular the situation in Ukraine and the Middle East", the Elysee added.
While on his 2023 visit, Macron and Sanchez signed a friendship treaty, which has yet to be ratified by Spain in the face of objections by the right-wing opposition
