    In the evening of September 28 Armenian and French Presidents Serzh
    Sargsyan and Nicolas Sarkozy attended Charles Aznavour's concert at
    Olympia Concert Hall dedicated to RA Independence Day.

    Presidential press service told Armenpress that this morning within
    the framework of his official visit Serzh Sargsyan had a working
    dinner with Armenian and French businessmen.

    "The Armenian-French cooperation of many centuries is anchored on
    religious and cultural commonalities. Those commonalities are so
    deep that the geographical position has never been an obstacle for
    continuous reinforcement of the friendship," President Serzh Sargsyan
    said in his address.

    "Invaluable is the role of France in development of Armenia. Armenia
    has always attached importance to expansion of commercial and economic
    relations with France, and this meeting will contribute to it. France
    is a trade and big investment partner of Armenia and occupies the
    second place with the volume of investments in Armenia's economy. 155
    Armenian-French joint ventures are registered in Armenia. We have
    successful examples of French investments in almost all spheres -
    telecommunication, production of drinks, banking, pharmaceuticals,
    healthcare, tourism, agriculture, light industry," the President
    stated.

    In his address the President also referred to the relations between
    Armenia and EU. "Armenia-EU relations have moved to a new quality level
    by the launch of the Eastern Partnership. This opens new opportunities
    for Armenian-French business cooperation," the President said.

    Concluding his speech Serzh Sargsyan called on French businessmen to
    launch active cooperation with Armenian counterparts.
