French ambassador to Armenia reiterates need for exclusively peaceful settlement of Karabakh conflict
Secretary of Armenia’s Security Council Armen Grigoryan on Wednesday hosted French Ambassador to Armenia Jonathan Lacôte, his office reported.
The secretary called the French diplomat’s attention to Azerbaijan's gross violation of the three humanitarian ceasefires reached by the persistent efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing countries. Grigoryan highlighted Turkey’s growing negative involvement in regional security and stability, evident in its provision of military-technical assistance to Azerbaijan, the recruitment and transfer of mercenary terrorists to the conflict zone, and its calls for a military solution to the conflict.
Armen Grigoryan highly praised the deeply rooted Armenian-French friendship, France’s efforts, and the personal involvement of President Emmanuel Macron in the peaceful settlement of the conflict, as well as the French National Assembly’s delegation’s visit to Armenia and Artsakh.
Lacôte reiterated the need for an exclusively peaceful and diplomatic settlement of the conflict.
