BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 6. The French
President's yet another baseless claim against Azerbaijan and
provocative statements that distort real facts are unacceptable,
spokesperson for the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry Aykhan Hajizade
said in response to a media question about the accusations of
French President Emmanuel macron against Azerbaijan at the
conference of ambassadors, Trend reports.
''Interestingly, France, which presents itself as a defender of
international law, has never criticized the gross violation of the
norms and principles of international law in relation to
Azerbaijan-the ethnic cleansing policy, the mass killings, and
crimes against humanity carried out by Armenia against
Azerbaijan.
We would like once again to remind the French side that the just
war waged by Azerbaijan on its sovereign territories under the
norms and principles of international law was solely to end the
Armenian occupation. At a time when real conditions for peace have
been created in the region, we strongly condemn such provocative
statements by France, which question Azerbaijan's sovereignty over
its territories, prepare Armenia for revanchism, and carry out the
extensive militarization of this country. The attribution to
Azerbaijan of France's unsuccessful activities in its overseas
territories, which are a manifestation of its insidious
neo-colonial policy, attests to France's erroneous policy. Instead
of blaming other countries, it would be more useful for France to
learn from its incompetent foreign policy. We demand France cease
its steps that do not serve peace and undermine stability in the
region,'' the statement of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry
reads.
