KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 22 — Malaysia and France have agreed to boost cooperation in the fields of defence, economy, energy, trade, investment, tourism and artificial intelligence, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said.
The matter was brought up during his phone conversation yesterday with French President Emmanuel Macron, during which they discussed developments from their meeting during the G20 Summit in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, on November 19.
“I also expressed my gratitude to Macron for the support given to the rebuilding of Gaza, which has suffered greatly at the hands of the cruel Zionist regime.
“We have also agreed to seek a solution with regards to Myanmar to bring peace to the country using appropriate diplomatic approaches,” he posted on Facebook yesterday.
Anwar also stated the government’s willingness to receive Macron and his delegation in Malaysia in May in an effort to boost bilateral ties.
