"FRENCH PEOPLE'S SUPPORT TO ARMENIA WILL NEVER CEASE"
- - I think it is obvious that the presidential elections both in Armenia and France will bring noi essential change into the bilateral relations between our states. The present state of our relations is satisfactory for Armenia and France, but both the sides are willing to enhance the cooperation. No doubt, the cooperation shall go on not only on highest governmental level, but the contacts between associations, cities and regions shall also enrich our dialogue. - Shall France have an essential role in the peace process on Nagorno-Karabakh, as the state presiding in the EU?
- In the frameworks of the OSCE Minsk Group France, together with Russia and the USA, is striving to find a solution to the conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh. Of course, France could have beeen satisfied just by the EU assistance to the process of Karabakh conflict's settlement. Nevertheless, the Minsk Group is the most convenient format of finding solution to the Karabakh conflict. - What do you think, how can the vast Armenian community of France and the eight-million Diaspora help establishing true democracy in Armenia, when the Government has begrudged them dual citizenship even after it was approved by Constitutional referendum?
- Naturally, France encourages the progress of democracy in Armenia, but interfering its relations with the Diaspora is beyond its authority. - Taking into consideration the political crisis in Turkey and the position of official Ankara about the Armenian genocide, what will be the position of the new government of France on Turkey's admittance to the EU?
- Those issues are attended in France with great interest. The newly formed Government has not come to any certain opinion on that question. At this moment I would rather avoid any comment. - What would you like to say to our readers in Armenia and the Diaspora?
- I would not only send message of confirming firmness and longitude of our relations, which is proved by continual contacts on all the levels, but also assure that the support of the French people to Armenia shall never cease.
