France will continue supporting Armenia in overcoming the consequences of the war - Jean-Yves Le Drian
"France will continue to support Armenia in overcoming the consequences of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, which cost numerous human lives and, as co-chair of the OSCE’s Minsk Group, will be committed to seeking ways for the comprehensive settlement of the conflict," Foreign Minister of France Jean-Yves Le Drian said in the congratulatory message sent to Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan.
"If the recent border incidents stress the need for working toward the demarcation and delineation of the borders of your country, we want the positive dynamics followed by the latest exchange of war prisoners and maps of minefields contribute to restoring the trust between the parties. France remains committed to the lasting peace in the South Caucasus and stands by Armenia for achieving that much needed and long awaited peace," the message said.
