It is normal to respond to the request of a sovereign country. Macron on the supply of French weapons to Armenia

Speaking at the 4th European Political Community Summit in London, French President Emmanuel Macron made a number of remarkable statements regarding Armenia, talking about the French arms supplied to Yerevan, as well as the ongoing peace negotiations with Baku.

According to "Armenpress", Emmanuel Macron's statements in his X microblog were presented to Olivier Decotigny, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of France to the Republic of Armenia.

Speaking about the deepening military-technical cooperation between Armenia and France, Emmanuel Macron noted: "If you look at the past decade, it seems that Azerbaijan has armed itself much more than Armenia. And if my memory is correct, and if I'm wrong, correct me, Azerbaijan really started a terrible war in 2020."

In this context, the French president also added that it is normal when Paris simply responds to the request of a sovereign country, Armenia, which wants to arm itself and feels that it may be attacked by another country.

"Armenia's perspective is peace, France's perspective is peace, I hope Azerbaijan's perspective is peace. And if the two countries conclude the peace treaty, then we will support such an agreement," Macron emphasized, speaking about the peace treaty and the settlement of relations between Yerevan and Baku.
