French President Emmanuel Macron visited Louisiana to celebrate longstanding cultural ties between his country and the state. Macron met with political leaders and strolled through New Orleans’ historic French Quarter.
Macron told Edwards he was overcome by the reception in the city.
Edwards, a Democrat, has been outspoken about the perils of climate change in a state where tens of thousands of jobs are tied to the oil and gas industry. This makes the stop to New Orleans “very emblematic” of climate-related efforts, French officials said. Louisiana is named for Louis XIV, the famous Sun King who ruled France for 72 years starting in 1643. New Orleans is where the Louisiana Purchase was finalized. The deal transferred the Louisiana Territory, which encompassed much of what is today the central United States, from France to the U.S. in 1803.
