France has agreed to drop its visa requirement for American tourists after Washington’s announcement of a similar loosening of restrictions for French citizens, the Foreign Ministry said in Paris.

The announcement comes one day after the State Department said the United States is dropping the requirement for tourist and business visas for citizens of six European countries, including France.
