    [Presenter] Armenian President Robert Kocharyan is in France on a
    visit. The Armenian president met French Senate Chairman Christian
    Poncelet yesterday.

    Robert Kocharyan told journalists about the aim of the Armenian
    delegation's visit. The Armenian president pointed out that the
    discussion of the settlement of the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict will
    be the main subject of discussion during his meetings with the French
    leadership. France is a mediator of the OSCE Minsk Group and we attach
    great importance to the discussion of the conflict settlement with
    the French leadership, the Armenian president said.

    [Correspondent Lilit Setrakyan from Paris by telephone] Robert
    Kocharyan met the French co-chairman of the Minsk Group, Bernard
    Fassier, this morning. They discussed the current stage of the Karabakh
    conflict settlement. Robert Kocharyan held some interesting meetings
    yesterday evening.

    The Armenian president met the president of the Credit Agricole Bank,
    Rene Carron. The sides discussed the implementation of agreements
    reached with the Armenian president in Yerevan a year ago. Rene
    Carron informed Robert Kocharyan about Credit Agricole's intention
    to take part in Haygukbank [Armenian Agriculture Bank] and noted that
    cooperation with the Armenian bank will yield positive results.

    Robert Kocharyan met French Industry Minister Patrick Devedjian
    and the president of Alcatel yesterday. They discussed issues of
    Armenian-French relations and Armenian-French economic ties.

    Robert Kocharyan familiarized them with the Armenian investment
    environment. They also discussed the sphere of tourism.

    After their meeting at the Elysee Palace tonight, Robert Kocharyan
    and French President Jacques Chirac will visit and lay a wreath
    on the Komitas monument commemorating the victims of the [1915]
    Armenian genocide.
