On September 19, 2023, Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov held a meeting with the Secretary General of the Council of Europe (CoE) Maria Peychinnovich Burich within the framework of his participation in the high-level week of the 78th session of the UN General Assembly in New York, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry told APA.
Jeyhun Bayramov emphasized the importance of cooperation between Azerbaijan and the United Nations. Both sides highlighted the significance of implementing various programs in priority areas for both parties. It was emphasized that the implementation of technical assistance within the existing Activity Plan between Azerbaijan and the United Nations is crucial.
The minister provides detailed information to the opposite side about the military-political provocations carried out by Armenia and the so-called regime it created.
It is emphasized that the main objective of the ongoing anti-terror operation in the region is the disarmament of the illegal Armenian armed forces and the dismantling of the illegal regime. It is emphasized that Azerbaijan does not target the civilian population or objects, but solely targets the illegal Armenian armed groups.
In addition, it is pointed out that the claims circulating about Lachin road are political manipulation. Despite the fact that international organizations and partners have been informed by Azerbaijan about the current situation, it was brought to the attention of the other side that it is regrettable to show a one-sided, biased approach that does not reflect reality.
At the meeting, discussions were also held on current issues and areas of mutual interest.
