London’s stance once again proves that respect for human rights and nations' self-determination is a priority for democratic states, the Ministry said Freedom and respect for these rights are, actually, the highest values in the modern world. We are convinced that any attempts to hamper the realization of fundamental human rights must be considered regardless of the political conjuncture and subjected to resolute and strict assessment by the international community. We can only hope that the position of Great Britain and other democratic states will positively impact Azerbaijan in accepting these realities and respecting human rights, it said. ![]() ![]() The foreign ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan, Ararat Mirzoyan and Jeyhun Bayramov, have arrived in Washington.
