We are keenly interested in the entry to the Armenian market of world brands and companies and I am confident that in our country Orange will influence positively not only the area of telecommunications but also business climate as a whole.” The President of Armenia expressed readiness to continue to assist Orange Armenia in providing affordable and high class services to our people.
