Partnerships
The Commune has a Friendship Declaration with the village of Şəkər, Khojavend, of the de facto independent Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (which is de jure part of Azerbaijan).[10] In June 2019, the French administrative court of Cergy-Pontoise declared that the signing breached French law by exceeding the authority of a municipal jurisdiction and by not respecting the international commitments of France (notably Nagorno-Karabakh's lack of recognition as a state), proclaiming the declaration null and void.[11]
