President receives Mr. Gérard Larcher, President of the French Senate

President Michael D. Higgins received Mr. Gérard Larcher, President of the Senate of France, at Áras an Uachtaráin.

Mr. Larcher is leading a delegation of 16 French Senators visiting Ireland to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the visit of former French President Charles de Gaulle in 1969. General de Gaulle’s 6-week visit to Ireland took place less than two weeks after his resignation, which was prompted by the result of a referendum on political reform, including a reform of the French Senate.
