Pakistan’s Ambassador to France Asim Iftikhar Ahmad and his colleagues at the Embassy of Pakistan joined the French people and other friends in the celebrations of the Bastille Day.

This day marks a glorious milestone in the inspiring history of France and is rightly a fitting occasion to commemorate and honour the resilience and determination of the French people in their efforts to shape the nation’s destiny, says a press release received here on Monday from Paris.

The statement said that Pakistan and France are great and good friends and we are committed to continue working together to further strengthen and diversify our multifaceted partnership and mutually beneficial cooperation in all domains.

It said we wish peace, progress and continuing prosperity for the French people. Joyeux 14 Juillet! Long live Pak-France friendship.
