On November 9, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany Olaf Scholz called the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that Germany supports the establishment of peace and friendly neighborly relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia, adding that his country calls on the parties to take decisive steps in this regard.

Noting that Azerbaijan was an initiator of the text and underlying principles of the peace treaty between Azerbaijan and Armenia, President Ilham Aliyev stressed that Armenia's territorial claims against Azerbaijan still remain in its Constitution.
