Translate into 64 languages with a sovereign tool born at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Use described publicly by DINUM — espace presse de numerique.gouv.fr (16 June 2026), summarised by the desk. Not tested by iadujour.

The result to aim for

Developed by the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, the DiplomaA translation solution was opened to all administrations in June 2026 as part of the State's "Our IA" plan.

What was done

In a press release published on June 16, 2026, DINUM presents the "Our AI" plan, led by the Minister of Action and Public Accounts, whose stated aim is to remove an "illegal AI" made of uncontrolled public tools and equip trusted technology agents hosted on SecNumCloud infrastructure. Among the tools that have been widespread or deployed since June 2026 is DiplomaA, a sovereign translation solution covering 64 languages, developed by the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs for its own needs and open interdepartmental. The same press release announces the generalization of L-Assistant to all state agents after ten months of experimentation with 10,000 agents, with a time saving of up to 16% on documentary synthesis tasks. The plan is based on three principles: an useful AI that reduces the repetitive burden (written, transcribed, seized), a human AI that assists without replacing the judgement of agents or deciding alone for citizens, and a sovereign AI.

What deserves your attention

An automatic translation of a diplomatic, legal or public text must be read by a person who is fluent in the target language, especially in the less well-equipped languages.
