YEREVAN, MARCH 23, ARMENPRESS. French Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna announced on March 23 an upcoming visit to Armenia.

Colonna told French lawmakers during question time that she will visit Armenia and Azerbaijan towards the end of April.

Senator Philippe Pemezec asked Colonna whether the French government is ready to provide as much diplomatic and military support to Armenia as it did to Ukraine.

In response, the French FM said: “France has condemned the closure of Lachin Corridor by Azerbaijan since the first day. This blockade causes tension. I plan to visit Yerevan and Baku in the end of April to convey this message. France is taking measures.”
