The Head of State was present again Thursday evening to follow a meeting of the XV of France. Six days after launching the World Cup at the Stade de France, Emmanuel Macron came to the Pierre Mauroy stadium in Lille for the Blues’ second match.

The President of the Republic was seated alongside his Uruguayan counterpart, Luis Alberto Lacalle Pou, to experience this meeting. He also warmly thanked him, once again taking advantage of diplomacy through sport to promote France.
