Azerbaijan has strongly condemned French Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Jean-Noël Barrot for once again targeting the country with what Baku described as unfounded allegations during his address at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) Global Forum on Building Trust and Reinforcing Democracy on October 13. The statement was made by Aykhan Hajizada, spokesperson for Azerbaijan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in response to allegations made by the French foreign minister against Azerbaijan at the OECD event. According to Hajizada, the accusations demonstrate that France has yet to abandon its confrontational rhetoric in relations with Azerbaijan.
