Borrells' comments doom EU mediation effort, Western Azerbaijan Community says

The Western Azerbaijan Community has expressed its attitude towards Josep Borrell, the High Representative of the European Union for External Relations and Security Policy, who continues to make slanderous statements against Azerbaijan.

"These statements once again prove that the European Union does not have a neutral position on the issue of normalisation of relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia," the community said, according to Caliber.Az.

"It is regrettable that the representative of the structure, which for almost thirty years has never spoken about Armenia's occupation of Azerbaijani lands, constantly takes a biased position against Azerbaijan. The EU mediation mission has no chance in such conditions. The representative of an international organisation, which expresses its desire to contribute to the peace process as a mediator, makes a statement full of threats against one of the parties, which is incompatible with the principle of mediation. The Western Azerbaijan Community once again calls on the EU to abandon unfair and accusatory rhetoric against Azerbaijan," the commentary reads.
