The French permanent representation to OSCE responded to Baku’s anti-OSCE Minsk Group statements issued by Leyla Abdullayeva, a spokeswoman of Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry. “Attempts to "reanimate" the virtually inactive Minsk Group may lead to the distancing US from the process of normalizing Azerbaijani-Armenian relations", Abdullayeva stated.
“Did you know that France, along with USA and Russia has been co-chairing the OSCE Minsk Group since the 1st of January 1997? The Group provides a forum for negotiations towards a peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict to ultimately establish stability in the South Caucasus”, the delegation Tweeted.
