    France's Support to Development of RA Cooperation with
    European Structures Deserves Highest Evaluation
    30.09.2006 13:46 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ `After the proclamation of Armenia's independence
    France was one of those countries which first came to support our
    young state and still keeps on rendering assistance in the state
    building, economy development, culture and education,' Armenian
    President Robert Kocharian said inaugurating the Square of France in
    the heart of Yerevan. In his words, France is Armenia's reliable ally
    on the European and international arena. `Our states hold a useful
    dialogue in various directions. France's support to the strengthening
    of cooperation between Armenia and the European structures deserves
    the highest evaluation. I would like to specifically note France's
    constructive role in the process of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
    settlement. During the recent years our economic ties have fixed
    considerable progress. Major French companies make investments in
    various sectors of our economy. I would like to welcome the leaders of
    several companies, who are present at this ceremony today. I would
    also like to point out to the ties between dozens of our regions and
    twin cities. We attach great attention and encourage the cooperation
    in scientific, cultural and educational fields. In this view the
    French University in Yerevan is one of the achievements. The
    University not only prepares skilled specialists but also coordinates
    Francophonie in Armenia. The Year of Armenia in France is the latest
    proof of the excellent relations between our two states. This is a
    golden opportunity to familiarize France and the whole world with our
    culture, economy, past and present.

    There are Armenian monuments, squares and streets with Armenian names,
    Armenian houses and institutions in France. Over a hundred of
    monuments dedicated to Armenians and the Armenian Genocide victims
    have been inaugurated in various regions of France being the evidence
    of sympathy and respect towards the Armenian people. We are deeply
    grateful to the French people for this.

    Mr President, I am glad that your visit to Armenia offered us the
    opportunity to give due to France naming this beautiful square the
    Square of France. This square is surrounded by theaters, musical
    institutions and museums. As a matter of fact this is one of the most
    favorite spots in our city, the knot binding various districts of
    Yerevan. This is the heart of Yerevan and the name of France is
    engraved on it. Let this name be eternal like our friendship. Long
    live France! Long live Armenia! Long live Armenian-French friendship.'
