YEREVAN. – President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan’s visit to Paris was splendid, French Ambassador Jean-François Charpentier noted at a press conference on Tuesday.

He recalled that this year Armenia and France mark the 25th anniversary of their diplomatic relations.

“After the establishment of diplomatic ties, there is a quite active, comprehensive discourse between the two countries,” added the French ambassador. “[But] despite the close and trusting relations, trade and economic ties are still less than the political [ties], but the parties intend to develop them.”
