On November 4-5, the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Kemeluly Tokayev, paid a state visit to the French Republic, El.kz cites dimashnews.com.

Accompanying him in Paris was a delegation from Kazakhstan, featuring prominent representatives from diplomatic, business, scientific, cultural, and sports sectors.

On November 4, Dimash Qudaibergen joined the Kazakh delegation at the inauguration of the “Kazakhstan: Treasures of the Great Steppe” exhibition at the renowned Guimet Museum. This exhibition showcases 35 rare artifacts from the collections of the National Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Azret Sultan State Historical and Cultural Museum-Reserve, highlighting key stages in Kazakhstan’s history.

On November 5, the Élysée Palace hosted a state reception on behalf of French President Emmanuel Macron. The event gathered members of the French government, distinguished politicians, business leaders, scientists, diplomats, and famous cultural and sports figures from both nations.

Honored Artist of Kazakhstan, Dimash Qudaibergen, attended the evening and, upon the request of the distinguished audience, performed two pieces from his repertoire: the iconic French song “SOS d’un terrien en détresse” and the traditional Kazakh folk song “Daididau.”

Composer, poet, singer, and former First Lady of France, Carla Bruni, expressed her gratitude to Dimash on Instagram, sharing a clip of his performance with her followers:

“How lucky to have had the privilege of listening to the wonderful Kazakh singer Dimash Qudaibergen last night.
Some voices take us elsewhere, far from this earth, 2 steps from Heaven.
Thank you for existing, Dimash.
Thank you for your immense talent, for your absolute grace, for your extraordinary voice, for your simplicity and your kindness…”

In a brief interview with the special project “Aqorda” on the national channel Qazaqstan, Dimash said:

“We are deeply impressed by the hospitality of the French people. Thank you so much! I hope that cooperation, mutual understanding, and friendship between our two countries will continue to grow and strengthen. French culture is renowned worldwide: Luc Plamondon, Hugo, the author of Notre-Dame de Paris. I’ve shared the stage with the talented singer Lara Fabian several times. I feel very comfortable here.”
