French President Macron, PM Modi To Inaugurate The International Solar Alliance Tomorrow
PM Modi and President Macron will co-chair the founding conference of the International Solar Alliance (ISA), tomorrow. The ISA is a flagship Indian initiative launched by PM Modi and the French president on the sidelines of the Paris climate conference in 2015. This meeting will be of great significance against the backdrop of the United States, under President Trump, pulling out of the Paris accord. India and France have pledged to achieve reduction in emissions as committed at Paris. "The ISA is a unique effort that brings the world together to harness solar energy and create a cleaner as well as greener future, said PM Modi in a tweet. Sources in the French government said Mr Macron's visit was decided in a way that coincides with the solar summit "as both leaders are very invested in clean and renewal energy." The Indian government released a video on clean energy hours before President Macron arrived in India. Watch the video below:
