AMBASSADOR OF FRANCE IN THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
National Assembly of RA
Dec 23 2008
Armenia
On December 22 RA NA President Mr Hovik Abrahamyan received the
Ambassador of the Republic of France to Armenia Mr Serge Smessow.
Highlighting the development of cooperation with the parliament of
France RA NA President Mr Hovik Abrahamyan noted that he invited to
Armenia on an official visit the President of the Senate of France
Mr Gerard Larcher.
The NA President is confident that as a result of his visit to Armenia
and meetings in Armenia, the relations between the parliaments of
the two countries will be more strengthened and the cooperation
will deepen, which will in its turn promote the development of the
relations in other spheres.
The Ambassador of the Republic of France to Armenia Mr Serge Smessow
highlighted the development of the inter-parliamentary relations
and expressed willingness to support practically the organization
of Mr Larcher’s visit. According to the Ambassador’s assessment,
the French-Armenian inter-parliamentary relations dynamically
develop, the evidence of which was the visit of the Chairman of
the France-Armenia Friendship Group with the Parliament of Armenia
of the National Assembly of France Mr Francois Rochebloine and the
Deputy Chairman Mr Rene Rouquet at the beginning of December. In the
National Assembly and the Senate of France there are deputies, who
warmly treat Armenia and are advocates in deepening the cooperation
with Armenia. During the meeting the sides touched upon also problems
of internal and regional mutual importance.
