The initiative is directed towards the effective implementation of the “FEF 2025–2026: Promotion of French in Armenia” project and the improvement of the quality of French language teaching in general education schools.
The document was signed by Zhanna Andreasyan, Minister of ESCS, and Olivier Decottignies, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the French Republic to Armenia. Deputy Ministers Artur Martirosyan and Araksia Svajyan also participated in the event.
