Париж: На фоне повышенной напряженности в отношениях между Азербайджаном и Арменией, важно, чтобы переговорный процесс не прерывался

На фоне повышенной напряженности в отношениях между Азербайджаном и Арменией, важно, чтобы переговорный процесс не прерывался. Об этом говорится в заявлении внешнеполитического ведомства Франции в ответ на просьбу депутата французского Сената Валери Буайе прояснить будущее дипломатических отношений   с Азербайджаном после экстрадиции и помилования азербайджанского убийцы Рамиля Сафарова.

В ответе МИД Франции, опубликованном в <Официальной газете>, в частности, говорится: <Приглашение министров иностранных дел Армении и Азербайджана в Париж 2 и 3 сентября сопредседателями Минской группы ОБСЕ, послами Жаком Фором (Франция), Робертом Брадтке (США) и Игорем Поповым (Россия), оказалось полезным, так как позволило сопредседателям, которые встретились с каждым министром по отдельности, выразить свою озабоченность азербайджанскому министру, и призвать обоих министров продолжить свои усилия в направлении мирного урегулирования Нагорно-Карабахского конфликта. Франция намерена продолжить свои усилия по содействию мирному урегулированию Нагорно-Карабахского конфликта и исполнять все свои обязанности в рамках посредничества Минской группы. На этом основании в ближайшие дни и недели у нее будут контакты на высшем уровне с обеими странами>.
