    RODIN'S SCULPTURE UNVEILED ON FRANCE SQUARE (VIDEO)

    Tert.am
    07.10.11

    Jule Bastien's statue, a sculpture by famous French artist Francois
    Rodin, was unveiled on Yerevan's France Square as Armenian and French
    Presidents Serzh Sargsyan and Nicolas Sarkozy visited the site to
    attend the opening of Charles Aznavour's house museum.

    A lot of people had gathered on the square since early morning.

    Sarkozy approached the crowd, squeezing hands with many.

    Before the opening of the statue, the two presidents delivered
    welcoming remarks. In his speech Sarkozy once again stressed the
    importance of characterizing 1915 events as genocide, pronouncing
    the Armenian equivalent of the term - tseghaspanutyun.
