ArmInfo.Armenian Foreign Ministry spoke with a statement on a resolution adopted by the French Senate.
The statement, in particular, reads: "The resolution adopted by the French Senate is an important step towards the recognition of the right of the people of Artsakh to self-determination and a just solution of the Artsakh issue.
With this decision, the people of France and the French Senate that represents them reaffirm their unwavering commitment to the universal civilizational values of human rights. The decision, confirming the need to resume negotiations within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmanship, outlines the ways to eliminate the grave consequences of Azerbaijan's aggression against the people of Artsakh with the assistance of Turkey and mercenaries.
We consider it especially important that the decision clearly fixes violations of international law and human rights by the armed forces of Azerbaijan, as well as Turkey's expansionist policy.
An impartial assessment of French legislators and their condemnation of the criminal aggression against the people of Artsakh and the peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict open the way to long-term peace in the region. "
