Azerbaijan Foreign Ministry criticized France Foreign Minister Catherine Katrin Column at a press conference in Yerevan.
“Unreasonable claims voiced on April 28, 2023 by the French Minister at a joint press conference of the Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs of the French Republic of Katrin column and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Armenia Ararat Mirzoyan are unacceptable,” the statement of the Azerbaijani foreign policy said.
“For those who put forward unreasonable claims, accusing Azerbaijan of interfering in Armenia, we would like to recall that the party, which for 30 years pursued a policy of occupation and ethnic cleansing, is Armenia. Unfortunately, the French side representing itself representing itself. The side, “striving” to resolve the conflict, never once in 30 years condemned Armenia for the illegal occupation policy she pursued, “added to the Foreign Ministry.
The diplomatic mission reminded that Armenia has not yet completely withdrawn its armed forces from the territory of Azerbaijan, did not free 8 Azerbaijani villages from occupation and continues military-political provocations.
