France in Armenia on March 7. As Henri Cuny, the French Ambassador
Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Armenia, mentioned, the occasion

natural, that this should be held at the Embassy of France, as

face of a woman and the bust of Mary, always young and beautiful,
is placed at every Mayor's Office of France", the French diplomat

of women's embassy" as his first Adviser, Consul, the Adviser on
cultural issues, and attaches on culture and trade-economic issues,
as well as the assistant and the translator are women. According to
him, such abundance of women is beneficial for the activity of the
embassy. According to Ambassador Cuny, women are the most impellent
and mighty power of the society in the ancient and traditional
Armenian land." Being in Armenia, I became more convinced, that
the nations develop by means of women: mildness is their power,
devotion is the protection of men, their mystery is our belief",
the Ambassador announced.
