As ARMENPRESS was informed from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia, welcoming the guests, the Deputy Minister emphasized the special ties and effective cooperation formed between Armenia, particularly Gegharkunik and Isère Department, which has its own place in the privileged Armenian-French relations.

Jean-Pierre Barbier, thanking for hosting the delegation led by him, confirmed the readiness to deepen and strengthen cooperation between Gegharkunik-Isère, as well as between French cities Grenoble and Vienne and Armenian cities Sevan and Goris in the fields of health, tourism, education, culture, and Francophonie.

Paruyr Hovhannisyan presented to the delegation the current challenges of the region and Armenia’s continuous efforts to establish peace.

Referring to the humanitarian crisis in Nagorno-Karabakh due to the illegal blocking of the Lachin Corridor and the establishment of a checkpoint by Azerbaijan in the Lachin Corridor on April 23, he emphasized that Azerbaijan’s attitude is aimed at completely disrupting efforts to establish stability and peace in the South Caucasus. In this context, Paruyr Hovhannisyan emphasized the imperative of sending an international fact-finding mission to the Lachin Corridor and stressed the importance of implementing the February 22 decision of the International Court of Justice.
