Axar.az reports that the statement came from EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Joseph Borrell.

He added that the European Union plans to hold internal consultations on this issue.

Australia has pulled out of a $ 90 billion (56 billion euro) submarine deal with France and signed an AUCUS deal with the United States and Britain. This provoked strong protests from France, and Paris recalled its ambassadors to the United States and Australia. French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian called the cancellation of the agreement a betrayal and said France had been shot in the back.
