/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan met Monday with
the President of the General Council of Vandee Department of France,
member of the European Parliament, Philippe de Villiers and his
delegation comprising members of the French National Assembly and
the Vice-Presidents of the General Council of Vandee Department,
the RA leader's press office told PanARMENIAN.Net.
Expressing gratitude to the MPs for the assistance rendered to Armenia,
for deepening the Armenian-French friendship and for the efforts for
worldwide recognition of the Armenian Genocide, President Sargsyan
said that the Armenian-French friendship and mutually warm attitude
date back to centuries.
"France is regarded by the Armenian people as a very close, friendly
state which perceives the Armenian issues in depth and brings a
practical help to their solution," he said.
Noting that there are 120 enterprises in Armenia with French capital,
President Sargsyan voiced hope that the companies of Vandee would
also come to Armenia. "Your presence also introduces the European
industrial and agricultural culture to Armenia," he said.
The President also expressed satisfaction with the level of cooperation
in the education sector, especially taking into consideration the
fact than recently Armenia has become the associated member to the
International Organization of La Francophonie.
For his part, Mr. de Villiers said French people are Armenia's
good friends. "Vandee is the Department with the highest number of
enterprises and the majority of labor force and with this regard
their experience could be useful for Armenia," he said, adding that
the discussions held in Yerevan will outline future cooperation.
