Azerbaijan PA on upcoming French Senate hearing on 'Armenian genocide'
Azerbaijan will continue to support Turkey in the issue related to discussion of the bill on criminalizing denial of the so-called "Armenian genocide" in the French Senate.

The statement came from chief of department of foreign relations of the Presidential Administration Novruz Mammadov.

He stressed that the Azerbaijani government and the public have expressed their indignation at the adoption of this bill by the National Assembly of France.

"No other state has expressed such a firm stance on this issue. We have always supported Turkey in this matter, and will support it in the future. Today we bring our position on this issue to the attention of the French public and leadership and we stand by it till the end", Mammadov said.

Mammadov noted with regret the existence of some tension in international relations. According to him, heads of states often underestimate the implications of their decisions.

According to him, this often lead to sacrificing of important political interests to opportunistic ends, which is not useful for international relations.
