YEREVAN, DECEMBER 2. ARMINFO. Armenia has got observer status at
International Francophony Organization, says Armenia's FM Vardan
Oskanyan who has just come back from the IFO's last meeting in
Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso).
Oskanyan says that Francophony is highly respected in the world with
its authority daily growing along with its membership. Over 50 states
are already its members, dozens are observers. In Ouagadougou observer
status was given to Armenia, Georgia, Austria and Croatia. "I think in
the next few years Armenia will become the IFO's full member," says
Oskanyan.
Besides poverty reduction, globalization problems, cultural legacy
preservation Armenia is interested in the opportunity to cooperate
with the countries it has no chance to contact with under other
organizations this first of all concerning African countries. This is
especially crucial now that Azerbaijan's policy at international
organizations is becoming increasingly aggressive, says Oskanyan.
