Hollande also invited Cameron to Paris once his government formed, said the French presidential office, the Elysee, in a statement on Friday.
Hollande reaffirmed in the statement his attachment to the "deep friendship" between France and Britain, and to the promotion of their partnership in all fields, especially within the European Union (EU), reported Xinhua.
