Parliamentary Assembly (APF) 23rd European regional forum held
in Yerevan raised Armenian community’s awareness of Francophonie
international organisation.

RA NA delegation representative at APF Armen Rustamyan characterized
Francophonie as an organisation based on a unified system of values,
rather than verbal community

As he told a joint news-conference with APF 23rd European regional
forum participants, "The forum held focused on educational issues;
joint declaration on educational reforms was adopted."

Head of APF European mission Jean-Paul Wahl, in turn, gave high
assessment to French-teaching standards in Armenia.

Head of APF parliamentary delegation Henriette Martinez stated,
"Our organization pursues 2 goals: preservation of French language,
as well as promotion of democracy and human rights defense. Armenia
has succeeded in achieving both."
