Bastille Day 2025: Indonesia’s Military Parade Steals Spotlight As President Prabowo Visits France

Bastille Day 2025 in Paris turned into a diplomatic and military spectacle as Indonesia—the world’s largest Muslim-majority nation—led the foreign guest honors. Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto arrived to oversee the march of his country’s troops, including a striking 200-member military drum unit, through the Champs-Élysées. The gesture marked a deepening of Franco-Indonesian defense ties, with expectations high for Jakarta to confirm major purchases of French Rafale fighter jets and other arms. #BastilleDay2025 #IndonesiaInParis #PrabowoSubianto #FrenchMilitaryParade #RafaleDeal #Oneindia #ParisParade #FranceIndonesiaTies #MilitaryShowcase #AsianPower #ChampsElysees #FranceNews #WorldDiplomacy #MacronPrabowo #IndonesiaFranceDeal #DefenceTies #IndonesianDrummers #ElyseeDinner #ParidhiReports #ParisNews
