What a coincidence that Biarritz will host the next gala of MT's organization

Biarritz is quite lovely but this self-imposed exile is getting rather curious.

Maybe Henri just needs to abdicate, especially if MT is barely stepping foot in the country he reigns in.

Very impressive to see GD Henri meeting with Yanomami tribe member and representatives.
