News - German MP not ruling out review of Germany-Azerbaijan economic relations

Michael Roth, Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the German parliament, the Bundestag, has called on the German authorities to send a signal to the leadership of Azerbaijan about the need to stop their military operation in Nagorno-Karabakh. Roth announced this to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper. "We [i.e. Germany] must send a clear message to Baku that we do not accept that cold-hearted aggression just like that," Roth said. "This refers also to the review of economic relations." Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann, Chairwoman of the Defense Committee of the German Bundestag, spoke in a similar way. "We have to send a clear message to Baku," she noted.
