It seems that a minor diplomatic flap occurred on November 14, during
the visit of President Sargsyan to Lyon, France
The on-line French newspaper La Tribune de Lyon reports that the
Armenian president did not appreciate the questions posed by French
TV journalist Olivier Michel.
Michel is said to have directed some questions about corruption in
Armenia and the Yerevan government's support of the Syrian President
Bashar al-Assad.
After the interview, Olivier Michel says he "was called out by
the Armenian translator and one of the ministers [accompanying the
president] threatened me with the finger."
