Take the following as truth: On the tower's inauguration, the lifts were not yet in operation and Prime Minister Tirard, aged 62, stopped at the first platform, 57 m (187 ft) up, letting his younger Minister of Commerce continue to the top to present Gustave Eiffel with the Legion of Honor medal.
Then the following statement: "Gustave Eiffel meet the government representatives 3 years after the tower's inauguration." is true, false, or inconclusive?
