British and French troops participated in a ceremonial swapping of the guards in Paris and London to commemorate 120 years since the signing of the Entente Cordiale. This marked the first time a non-Commonwealth country, France, took part in the ceremony at Buckingham Palace, and the UK became the first foreign state to guard the French presidential residence.
