The President of Azerbaijan called on the US and French governments to be responsible
"We call on the governments of the United States, France and other countries where there is a diplomatic mission of Azerbaijan that may be exposed to terrorism to be responsible and fulfill their international obligations."
Qazet.az reports that President Ilham Aliyev said this during his speech at the meeting of the Council of Heads of State of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) in Astana on October 14.
The head of state reminded that the embassy of Azerbaijan in Paris was raided twice:
"After the first attack, the President of France promised me on the phone that measures would be taken to prevent this from happening again. However, it turned out to be not true, to put it mildly."
"After the first act of vandalism and the attempt to break into the embassy building, the guard placed in front of the Azerbaijani embassy was removed. It is likely that this was agreed with the Armenian side. As soon as the guard was removed, there was a second raid attempt, there were offensive writings, and a crowd of deranged radicals attacked the Azerbaijani embassy. This is absolutely unacceptable and violates all diplomatic conventions.
I must say that Armenia also committed provocations against the embassies of Azerbaijan in Lebanon and the United States. There are images of the latest act of aggression and terrorism - the shooting of a car of the Azerbaijani embassy in the United States. We call on the governments of the United States, France, and other countries where diplomatic missions of Azerbaijan are located that may be exposed to terrorism, to be responsible and fulfill their international obligations. We have no doubt that acts of terrorism and vandalism were organized by Armenia. Why am I saying this? Because in the 1990s, 32 acts of terrorism were committed by the Armenian special services - explosions in subways, buses, ferries and trains. As a result of these terrorist acts, more than two thousand peaceful Azerbaijanis died," the head of state said
