According to Jean-Baptiste Lemoyne, Secretary of State at the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs, they raise the issue of Armenian prisoners during conversations with the Azerbaijani authorities whenever the opportunity arises.
Lemoyne spoke about this during a conversation with journalists in Yerevan.
“Naturally, we raise this issue with the Azerbaijani authorities as soon as we have the opportunity. In any case, in our relations with both sides, we put everything on the table and discuss all possible issues. The ICRC has the primary mandate on the issue of prisoners of war, and they are working in that direction, but, naturally, we also raise this issue whenever possible,” said the Foreign Ministry Secretary of State.
