France has duly taken note of the February 22, 2023 ruling of the UN International Court of Justice concerning the situation in the Lachin corridor, the French Foreign Ministry said in a statement published on its official website.

Pending the final decision, the Court requested Azerbaijan to take all measures at its disposal to ensure the unimpeded movement of people, vehicles and cargo through the Lachin corridor in both directions.

France reiterates its unwavering support for the International Court of Justice and the binding nature of its decisions, including these provisional measures, the Foreign Ministry also said in a statement.
