According to Armenia’s Permanent Mission in UN Office at Geneva, an Armenia-France Friendship Room was inaugurated at the Office in Geneva on October 31. As part of the dedication, large-scale artworks by painter Jean Boghossian were installed in the room – one symbolizing Armenia, the other symbolizing France.
Additionally, a monument by Boghossian was placed at the room’s entrance, inscribed in both Armenian and French, signifying its dedication to Armenia-France friendship. All of the artworks were donated to the United Nations Office in Geneva for permanent display.
