The President of Azerbaijan received the delegation led by Michael Harms, Chairman of the Eastern Committee of the German Economy.
During the meeting, Ilham Aliyev responded to the latest statements of the head of EU diplomacy, Josep Borrell, about the possibility of Azerbaijan's aggression against Armenia. The President of Azerbaijan denied those claims, stating that his country has no plans to attack Armenia.
“Borrell said that if Azerbaijan attacks Armenia, it will lead to serious consequences. First, where did Borrell get the information that Azerbaijan plans to attack Armenia? We do not have such plans. Those are Mr. Macron’s hints,” Aliyev said.
He noted that such statements are part of France's anti-Azerbaijani policy.
At the same time, Aliyev emphasized the importance of the meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan in Munich on the initiative of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on February 17, “from the point of view of giving dynamics to the peace process.”
According to him, Germany takes a neutral position in the peace process. Aliyev noted that Azerbaijan is committed to the peace process.
