France has summoned Azerbaijan's ambassador to Paris over 'unacceptable remarks' made by the country's President Ilham Aliyev last week at the Cop29 climate talks he is hosting in Baku.
The French foreign ministry said Tuesday's move to call in the Azeri ambassador came in the wake of "unacceptable remarks made about France and Europeans" which led France's Environment Minister Agnes Pannier-Runacher to cancel her trip to the UN climate summit.
