In 2015, he presided over COP21 in Paris, guiding the negotiations that culminated in the historic Paris Agreement on Climate Change.

His diplomatic career has been marked by a strong commitment to international cooperation, peace and the fight against Climate Change. He consequently served as President of the French Constitutional Council, France’s highest constitutional institution, from 2016 to 2025. Deeply committed to culture and arts, painter, he has maintained a longstanding interest in history and the preservation of cultural heritage.
