Head of the French-Lebanese Parliamentary Friendship Committee, MP Simon Abi Ramia, departed the capital Beirut this morning at the head of a parliamentary delegation to the French city of Toulouse, upon an invitation by Mayor Jean-Luc Moudenc.

The delegation will take part in the inauguration of Lebanon’s Cedars Garden in Toulouse, a symbolic gesture reflecting the depth of the historic and cultural ties between the two countries.

The visit program also includes meetings with members of the Lebanese diaspora, community organizations, and Lebanese nationals residing in Toulouse.

As part of the visit, the MP and the delegation will tour the Airbus company to learn about its industrial and technological expertise.

Later, the delegation will head to the French capital, Paris, where meetings with French political figures are scheduled to take place.
