A commentary by Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Aykhan Hajizada published by the ministry said on Thursday Baku reminds Attal that the measures taken by his country are fully consistent with the norms and principles of international law. Attal demanded Baku withdraw its forces from “occupied positions” in Armenian territories at an annual dinner of the Coordinating Council of Armenian Organizations of France, French Ambassador to Yerevan Olivier Decottignies said on X.
Relations between Baku and Yerevan have remained tense since 1991, when the Armenian military occupied Karabakh, a territory internationally recognised as part of Azerbaijan, and seven adjacent regions.
