On Sunday, a French president will make a state visit to Germany for the first time in 23 years. Of course, Emmanuel Macron and his predecessors, including Jacques Chirac, have visited Germany on various occasions. However, those were working visits, official visits or visits scheduled for specific events. A state visit is different in terms of protocol. During a state visit, there is a reception with military honors and a state banquet.
