    RA President Serzh Sargsyan signed a decree on awarding renowned
    artist Hovhannes Semerjyan (Jean Jansem) with Order of Glory for
    his contribution to expansion of Armenia-France cultural ties on his
    90th anniversary.

    Under another decree, popular Italian screenwriter Tonino Guerra was
    awarded with Order of Glory for his contribution to the development
    of Armenian-Italian cultural relations.

    March 9, RA President Serzh Sargsyan visited the Matignon gallery and
    familiarized himself with works by renowned French artist of Armenian
    origin Jean Jansem, who was accompanying the Armenian leader.

    Jean Jansem said he always comes to Armenia with sinking heart and
    is proud of being Armenian. He also noted that is very concerned that
    his sons and grandsons do not speak Armenian.

    In response, RA President said that Armenian is the one who is Armenian
    in spirit. And for spreading Armenian abroad, the Ministry of Diaspora
    was established.

    As NEWS.am reported previously, the Armenian delegation led by RA
    President Serzh Sargsyan arrived for a 3-day official visit to France.

    The delegation includes RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian, Minister
    of Diaspora Hranush Hakobyan, and Chairman of the Armenia-France
    parliamentary friendship group Ara Babloyan.

    On March 10, at Elysée, the Armenian leader is to hold a meeting
    with his French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy. The sides will discuss
    Armenian-French cooperation, international and regional problems.
