Community: France's sale of arms to Armenia - manifestation of hostility against Azerbaijan

The French defense minister's announcing the upcoming signing of an arms deal with Armenia causes serious concern, the Western Azerbaijan Community said in a statement, Report informs.

The Western Azerbaijan Community noted that the sale of weapons by France to Armenia is, first of all, a manifestation of hostility towards Azerbaijan. “In addition, France continues its dirty activities against Azerbaijan in various international organizations.”

"The supply of weapons to Armenia by France serves to increase revanchism in this country and tension in the region. It is obvious that the establishment of peace in the region is not beneficial to Paris. France is trying to introduce geopolitical competition in the South Caucasus region and for this purpose incites Armenia to a new war against Azerbaijan. Even in the 21st century, France still cannot abandon its colonial thinking and racist approach," said the community.

"We are sure that France will fail in the policy of arming Armenia, just as it failed in its 'mediation' efforts," the community added.
