Malaysian experts have met French officials to co-ordinate investigations into missing flight MH370, days after suspected debris was found.
A plane part washed up on French-owned Reunion, in the Indian Ocean, last week and has been flown to France for tests.
Malaysia’s transport minister says the part belonged to a Boeing 777 – the same model as the Malaysia Airlines plane that vanished in March 2014.
Tests will also be carried out on new debris found, Malaysia says.
Investigators in the city of Toulouse will seek to establish if the plane part came from MH370, that was travelling from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board. They will begin their work on Wednesday.
A suitcase found near the wing portion in Reunion is also to be tested at a laboratory in Paris, Le Monde reported (in French).
Investigators believe MH370 veered off course on the way to Beijing and crashed into the sea.
