¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ: An ambitious nation with an ambitious future 
I have just celebrated my third anniversary in ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ. It has been an amazing journey so far, and I am delighted to be part of the amazing transformation in the country.
France was the first European country to officially express its support for ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ’s bid to host World Expo 2030.
France’s pledge of support was based on our historic relationship and the strategic partnership we have built, which is growing stronger in all areas.
The world is witnessing the achievements of Saudi Vision 2030 in all sectors; ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ stands out in a changing world.
I firmly believe that ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ’s real asset is its people: Saudis are both ambitious and friendly; they are bright and generous and will welcome the world with open arms to show their rich culture and achievements.
Riyadh is truly an inspiring city and will be a fantastic host for World Expo 2030.
Why Riyadh? You have to see it for yourselves! Riyadh is young, Riyadh is beautiful!
