Aliyev takes on Canada and France.

"Sometimes countries located on the other corner of the world make statements related to the Karabakh conflict, or the processes taking place in Azerbaijan; this is inadmissible. I can bring Canada as an example...

...a second superpower has appeared, but we were not aware of it? Let them deal with their own affairs," said Aliyev

As for France, Aliyev said: "We have repeatedly expressed our demands to the French side to leave us alone. Go and deal with your affairs! A representative of the French Senate arrives in Yerevan, announces that the French Senate recognizes Nagorno-Karabakh...

...What are those statements? Let them deal with their own affairs," said Aliyev
