Foreign Ministry spokesman Mühll also stated that France has provided humanitarian aid to the Nagorno-Karabakh region.
The Senate approved the decision the day before and asked the French government to recognize the so-called “Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh”.
In the ceasefire agreement signed between Azerbaijan and Armenia, there is no element indicating the status of Nagorno-Karabakh. Also, according to the United Nations (UN), Nagorno-Karabakh is considered Azerbaijani territory.
As one of the countries of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chair, France is criticized for losing neutrality and supporting Armenia in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
