MFA: Azerbaijan strongly rejects statement of French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs

Azerbaijan strongly rejects and condemns the statement issued by the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs of the Republic of France regarding the measures taken in response to further provocations of the Armenian armed forces illegally stationed in the Karabakh region of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Report informs referring to the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry's commentary on the unacceptable statement of the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs of France on the measures taken in response to provocations of the Armenian armed forces illegally stationed in the Karabakh region.

"France, being distinguished by its anti-Azerbaijani position and statements during the 44-Day War, remaining outside of peace-building efforts in the region in the post-conflict situation and its issued statements only having a negative impact, as well as issuing statements supporting separatism while further isolating itself from the region is well-known.

The stance of France demonstrates that it refuses to learn from the current situation in the colonial regions that it faces today and continues its previous behavior and policy in this regard.

French officials, the National Assembly, and the Senate are even more active than Armenia with the issuance of statements and documents against Azerbaijan.

Islamophobic and anti-Azerbaijani policy of France, as well as its unacceptable interference in the internal affairs of Azerbaijan clearly demonstrates that the farther France is from the region, the better it will be."
