“France doesn’t provide a constructive solution in the Karabakh problem”
Martin Lejeune, who is a journalist and analyst based in Berlin said this while giving an interview to Ednews.
According to him, it makes him a little bit worried that France is very much one-sided:
“I don't think that they get the whole complete picture in France because they especially President Macron, as you mentioned, the mayor of Paris, they meet the Armenian part only, not necessarily the center of Armenian politics. They quite tend to meet the radical ones, the radical Armenians, and then they just get this picture. So the hardliners who want the conflict. So they don't have these complete pictures. And this is even more difficult because of the media coverage.”
M. Lejeune added that yesterday, a very long feature story was published in the daily newspaper Le Monde, most important newspaper in France:
“Very one-sided story about Karabakh providing the narrative of Armenia not based. So I think they make this mistake of just going to the one side and listening to the one side and doing this, France will never reach a solution or a realistic approach to solve this conflict. Also, I think that France has so many own things to worry about, like their presence in Mali and Indonesia, where they have quite a lot of problems as they faced before in Court D'ivoire, where they exited but also had disaster.”
“They have so many problems in western Central Africa that they should care about that instead of interfering in the Karabakh problem additionally because they don't provide a constructive solution”, the journalist concluded.
