"I don't want to interfere in any community matters. I am sure the community has its own internal wisdom and can exercise prudence to solve intra-communal matters," High Commissioner Zareh Sinanyan said during a meeting with community organizations and individuals in Lyon. Vice-Mayor of Vienne Levon Sakounts and Deputy Mayor of Décines Denis Djorkaeff were also present at the meeting.
The High Commissioner presented the Office’s mission and programs, and also answered questions from attendees, which were mostly about repatriation, Diaspora involvement in Armenia’s daily life, disagreements between Diaspora communities and security issues in Armenia and Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).
