French President Emmanuel Macron joined Armenian President Vahagn Khachaturyan, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Parliament Speaker Alen Simonyan for a walk through central Yerevan on Monday evening following an official dinner.

The leaders took selfies with passersby and spoke with them. 

They later had tea at a cafe.

Macron arrived in Armenia on May 3 to attend the 8th European Political Community Summit, held Monday, and for a state visit beginning May 5.

Earlier at an official reception, Macron was awarded Armenia’s Order of Glory for his contribution to advancing bilateral ties. He, in turn, awarded the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour, France’s highest distinction, to Khachaturyan and Pashinyan.
