Olivier Decottignies, the French ambassador to Armenia, dismissed the disinformation disseminated on the internet that as if the French embassy is asking its citizens to stay away from Syunik Province of Armenia.

“Nothing new there - Our travel advisory for Armenia was updated for the last time on July, 18, 2023. And the Syunik region of Armenia is included in our map of Armenia - as it should,” the French diplomat wrote on X—former Twitter.

The French ambassador to Armenia last time had dismissed such disinformation on September 7, calling it fake news.
