The RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan sent a congratulatory message to French President Emmanuel Macron on the occasion of the country's National Day. The message states:
"Dear Mr. President, Dear Emmanuel,
On behalf of the Armenian people, I warmly congratulate You and the friendly people of France, on the occasion of the National Day of the French Republic.
Due to the victory of the freedom-loving and revolutionary spirit of the French people, the civilized values of human rights, equality of citizens and enlightenment were placed at the core of the historical development of Europe.
Today we are proud to note the existence of a high-level privileged dialogue between Armenia and France, which is based on centuries-old Armenian-French historical and cultural ties and common values.
Today, when the world has become unpredictable and full of challenges, we reaffirm our full readiness to continue to expand and deepen the cooperation between Armenia and France, both bilaterally and multilaterally.
Armenia highly appreciates the constructive and balanced mediation of France, the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chair, in the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict as a pledge of regional peace, stability and development.
I look forward to hosting you on a state visit to Armenia in the near future.
Congratulating You again on the French National Day, I wish you good health and inexhaustible energy and the friendly people of France, prosperity and new achievements.
Warmly, Nikol Pashinyan".
