A march to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris was held, followed by a wreath-laying ceremony on behalf of dozens of state institutions, officials, and NGOs, the Armenian embassy in France informs Armenian News-NEWS.am.

Then, under the national anthems of Armenia and France, the Armenian ambassador to France heated the eternal flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier—and in memory of the innocent victims of the Armenian Genocide.

Subsequently, those in attendance observed a minute of silence in honor of these victims.
