Maria Zakharova, the spokesperson of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA), stated this during Thursday’s press briefing—and answering the question of an Azerbaijani reporter. "We are equal," Zakharova added jokingly. French authorities accuse Azerbaijan of organizing riots in New Caledonia. Such accusations are made against Russia as well on a regular basis.
