Франсуа Рошблуа: Жаль, что визит президента Азербайджана в Францию не был отложен

Депутат парламента Франции Франсуа Рошблуа выразил сожаление тем, что визит президента Азербайджана Ильхама Алиева в Париж не был отложен в связи с последними событиями касательно дела Рамиля Сафарова.

В своем заявлении Рошблуа отметил, что визит президента Азербайджана не приветствуется, так как прошло всего лишь несколько дней после решения Алиева о помиловании Рамиля Сафарова - убийцы армянского офицера Гургена Маркаряна.

"Дело Сафарова вызвало глубокое возмущение в Армении и всех демократических странах",- отметил Рошблуа, добавив, что провокационная позиция азербайджанских властей создает атмосферу недоверия и вызывает обеспокоенность за безопасность на Южном Кавказе.

31 августа осужденный в Венгрии на пожизненный срок азербайджанский офицер Рамиль Сафаров, зарубивший топором спящего армянского офицера Гургена Маргаряна, был экстрадирован на родину. В тот же день президент Азербайджана Ильхам Алиев своим указом помиловал его, а министр обороны присвоил звание майора. Рамилю Сафарову была выплачена зарплата за восемь лет, а также подарена квартира. В связи с этим президент Армении Серж Саргсян созвал экстренное заседание Совета национальной безопасности и совещание аккредитованных в республике послов и заявил о прекращении дипломатических отношений с Венгрией.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin as an “old friend” as the two began a series of meetings Tuesday at a time when their countries face both overlapping and differing challenges from the United States. Relations between China and Russia have deepened in recent years, particularly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. According to AP, Putin addressed Xi as “dear friend” and said that Moscow’s ties with Beijing are “at an unprecedentedly high level.” Following their formal talks, they planned to have another meeting over tea with some of their top aides. The talks come the day after both attended a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the nearby Chinese city of Tianjin, and the day before a grand Chinese military parade in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.
