A French instate has been established in Armenia, former Ambassador of France to Armenia Jonathan Lacote reported on Facebook. The initiative has been brought to life in cooperation with the Aznavour Foundation having been developed during the four years of the Ambassador's tenure in the country, Lacote said.
"This Institute will combine all programmes which contribute to cultural relations between France and Armenia and offer projects related to the French culture and the language in Armenia. We owe all Armenians for creating this Institute, all those who love France, the teachers who teach the language in the country and the youth who are interested in the culture and share our values," Lacote wrote, sharing the French government decree on establishing the Institute.
