(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, August 31. French Ambassador
to Azerbaijan Anne Boillon has been summoned to the Foreign
Ministry of Azerbaijan, Trend reports referring to the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs of Azerbaijan.
In the course of the meeting, Boillon was handed a note of
protest in connection with the sending of vehicles by France in the
direction of "Lachin" border crossing point under the guise of
"humanitarian cargo", accompanied by the leaders of several French
cities (including the Mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo), and the fact
that they made provocative statements against Azerbaijan.
It was emphasized that these steps of the French side are not
only a direct interference in the internal affairs of Azerbaijan,
but also an encroachment on the sovereignty and territorial
integrity of the country protected by international law.
These provocative actions, which are a tool of Armenia's
manipulative campaign, are another example of steps aimed at
aggravating the situation in the region and motivated by France for
the continuation of Armenia's revanchist position, which has been
intensifying in recent days.
The Azerbaijani side considered the demonstrative attempt to
send cargoes without agreement with it, contrary to its will and
international legal framework on sending international humanitarian
aid to the internationally recognized territory of Azerbaijan as a
provocative act and brought to the attention of the French side its
strong protest.
Moreover, the Azerbaijani side insistently demanded from France
to stop the steps directed against the sovereignty and territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan Republic protected by international law, as
well as the steps threatening the fragile process of normalization
in the region.
