Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met with his colleagues from Armenia and Azerbaijan Zohrab Mnatsakanyan and Jeyhun Bayramov. This is stated on the website of the Russian department.
It is noted that during the talks, they discussed “urgent issues related to the implementation of previously reached agreements.” We are talking about a ceasefire in the conflict zone in Nagorno-Karabakh, as well as a “sustainable settlement” of relations between the two countries.
On October 9, Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan Zohrab Mnatsakanyan and Jeyhun Bayramov met in Moscow with the mediation of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. The parties agreed to declare a truce on October 10 at 12:00 and begin substantive (substantive) negotiations at the OSCE Minsk Group platform. Russia, the United States and France act as mediators in this format. A ceasefire was announced the next day, but opponents blame each other for continuing the shelling.
Armed clashes in Nagorno-Karabakh, over which Armenia and Azerbaijan have been waging a territorial dispute for 30 years, began on September 27. The parties accused each other of provocation and escalation of the conflict.
