President of France Francois Hollande and his Armenian counterpart
who is in France on a working visit met in Paris on Monday.
Francois Hollande and Serzh Sargsyan discussed a wide range of
issues related to Armenian-French agenda, addressing regional and
international problems and challenges.
Serzh Sargsyan thanked Hollande for the role of France in the OSCE
Minsk Group and for initiating a meeting aimed at resolving the
conflict.
The two sides reiterated that the Armenian-French relations are of
a special character based on common values of century-old friendship
between the Armenian and French people. The relations are strengthened
year after year by high-level visits, interparliamentary close ties,
expansion and development of decentralized cooperation, and cooperation
within international organizations.

apart from the political dialogue at the highest level, the economic
ties are actively developing and strengthening. The volume of French
investments in the Armenian economy reaches $1 billion.
French President thanked Serzh Sargsyan for Armenia's participation
in international peacekeeping missions, as well as readiness of the
Armenian side to participate in the actions in African region under
the auspices of UN.
Touching upon the Karabakh settlement, President Sargsyan said that
Armenia had always advocated the settlement of the conflict by peaceful
negotiations, and said that he appreciated the efforts of the leaders
of OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing states that are aimed at progress in
talks, establishment of peace and stability.
