Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev said that France is “preparing the ground” for the destabilization of the situation in the South Caucasus and a new military conflict in the region, RT reported.

Aliyev said this in his greeting to the participants of the “Decolonization” conference.

“France destabilizes not only its past and present colonies, but also the South Caucasus,” he said.

According to Aliyev, France is provoking a new war in the region “by supporting separatist tendencies and arming Armenia.”

Earlier, the Azerbaijani president said that France could be the culprit of a possible new escalation in the South Caucasus.
