Did you notice the Armenian flag fluttering proudly above the entrance? This, my friends, is the Ambassade d’Arménie, the heart of Armenia here in Paris. The Ambassade d’Arménie wasn’t always here. After the Soviet Union collapsed Armenia became independent. In 1992, they established diplomatic relations with France and opened this embassy right here in Paris. It’s a symbol of the enduring relationship between Armenia and France, a relationship built on shared history, culture, and values. Interestingly, in 2009, the Armenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs bought a residence on 11 rue Benouville from a businessman. Their plan was to eventually move the Ambassade d’Arménie there. This residence has a fascinating past. It was once the home of former French President Valéry Giscard d’Estaing. Imagine the stories these walls could tell! The Ambassade d’Arménie serves as a vital link between these two nations, fostering cooperation and understanding.
