South Korean President Lee Jae Myung returned home on Wednesday following a four-day state visit to France, where he prioritized bolstering collaboration in high-tech industries and cultural exchanges. The visit began on Sunday with a co-chaired summit with French President Emmanuel Macron in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, during which they unveiled a joint investment plan to bolster the cinema sector.
Lee then embarked on a state visit to Paris, engaging in talks with Macron on enhancing cooperation in artificial intelligence, defense, and nuclear energy sectors before attending a state dinner hosted by Macron and his spouse. This reciprocal visit came shortly after Macron's trip to Seoul in April, coinciding with the 140th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two nations. Lee is expected to arrive back in South Korea on Thursday.
