ArmInfo.Armenia is closely following the processes taking place in France. This was stated by Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan at a joint press conference with French Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs Stephane Sejourne on September 16 in response to a question about whether Yerevan is following the internal political processes in the French Republic. 

"We are confident that the French people and political forces always  have the wisdom that will allow them to find solutions that are in  line with the principles of democracy. And as long as these decisions  are in line with the democratic criteria that France has proclaimed  and infected the whole world with them - freedom, equality and  fraternity, we can always be calm. And I am confident that all  processes in France will proceed in this vein," Mirzoyan concluded.

In turn, Sejourne noted that his visit to Armenia was approved by  both the President and the Prime Minister of the country, which  testifies to the commitment to continue the state policy.  "There  will be no change in our proclaimed principles. The continuity of our  relations and support will be preserved. I believe that no one will  notice changes in the principles proclaimed by our state, such as  democracy, friendship and peace. Perhaps the officials in the highest  echelons of power will change, but our commitment to bilateral  relations based on friendship will not change," Mr Sejourne stated.
