Hollande and Obama confirm strong Franco-US friendship
The presidents of France and the United States have confirmed the strong friendship between the two countries at a press conference in Washington on Tuesday.
Obama and Hollande said they were both in agreement on foreign policy, trade and the environment.
On the subject of Iran, Obama said sanctions would continue for now.
“President Hollande and I agree on the need to continue enforcing existing sanctions even as we believe that new sanctions during these negotiations would endanger the possibility of a diplomatic solution.”
After the press conference, a state dinner will be held in honour of Hollande.
The next time the two will meet will be in June.
