(29 May 2019) French President Emmanuel Macron welcomed his Madagascar counterpart Andry Rajoelina in Paris on Wednesday.
Speaking at the news conference after their meeting, Rajoelina highlighted the territorial dispute with France over the Scattered Islands in the Indian ocean.
He asked the French President to find a solution for the return of the small coral islands to Madagascar.
Macron promised to find a common solution before the end of next year.
Asked about French nationals being sentenced to death in Iraq for their crimes as members of the Islamic State group, Macron said he was confident in the Iraqi judicial system.
But the French President urged the Iraqi authorities to reconsider the death penalty and reduce the punishment to a life sentence.
