During the meeting, Azerbaijan expressed its protest regarding the visit of Polish President Andrzej Duda to the Armenia-Azerbaijan border region near the village of Kerki, which remains under Armenian occupation. President Duda participated in an anti-Azerbaijani propaganda together with the European Union Mission to Armenia, despite prior warnings from the Azerbaijani side.

It was recalled that, contrary to its declared purposes of contributing to stability in the region and confidence-building between Azerbaijan and Armenia, the mission is being widely exploited as an anti-Azerbaijani propaganda tool.

It was emphasized that this provocation contradicts the Azerbaijani-Polish relations and that it is necessary to refrain from such steps that affect the legitimate security interests of Azerbaijan.
