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.

EU leaders call on Trump to include Ukraine in summit with Putin

European Union leaders have appealed to U.S. President Donald Trump to defend their security interests at a summit with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Friday 15 August over the war in Ukraine. EU leaders are doing their best to exert some influence over the summit that they have been sidelined from. It remains unclear whether even Ukraine will take part but EU leaders underlined that “the path to peace in Ukraine cannot be decided without Ukraine.” According to AP, Trump has said that he wants to see whether Putin is serious about ending the war now in its fourth year. In a statement on Tuesday 12 August, EU leaders said that they “welcome the efforts of President Trump towards ending Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.” The European Union will make a fresh attempt to rally Trump to Ukraine’s cause on Wednesday at virtual meetings convened by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Trump did not confirm whether he would take part, but he stated: “I’m going to get everybody’s ideas” before meeting with Putin.
