    FRENCH GOVERNMENT PRESENTS ARMED FORCES OF ARMENIA WITH MEDICAL
    EQUIPMENT WORTH A TOTAL OF $1 MLN


    YEREVAN, DECEMBER 1. ARMINFO. The government of France has presented
    the armed forces of Armenia with medical equipment worth a total of $1
    mln. The transfer of the humanitarian assistance was held at the
    central clinical hospital of the Ministry of Defence of Armenia.

    Ambassador of France to Armenia Henry Cuny mentioned that the gesture
    of the French government is of special importance. "Taking into
    account the conflict of the region France has limited the cooperation
    with Armenia in the sphere of defence", the ambassador mentioned and
    added that any cooperation in the defence sphere might arouse protests
    of other countries of the region, and for this reason the French
    government has decided to provide assistance in the sphere of army
    health-care. Henry Cuny stressed that France has found time and funds
    for sending humanitarian assistance to Armenia just at the moment when
    France itself needs vehicles in connection the events in Cote
    d'Ivoire. He also mentioned that the Armenian side has highly assessed
    the assistance of the French Republic and expressed for further
    bilateral cooperation.

    Deputy Defence Minister of Armenia, Lieut-Gen Arthur Aghabekian, on
    behalf of Defence Minister Serge Sargsian and all the servicemen of
    the country, expressed gratitude to the government of France and
    stressed that the humanitarian assistance will serve only peaceful
    purposes. The deputy minister mentioned that the surgical instruments,
    blankets and other medical accessories will be distributed to
    hospitals.
