Moscow’s actions can’t harm parties to Karabakh conflict: official

PanARMENIAN.Net - Moscow’s actions could by no means harm Armenia or Azerbaijan in the issue of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, a spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry said on Thursday, November 12.

“We are closely cooperating with our Armenian and Azerbaijani colleagues to reach a lasting solution,” Maria Zakharova said, according to Russian media.

The spokeswoman also commented on a journalist’s remark, claiming that the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov had allegedly urged the return of some territories to Azerbaijan while on a working visit to Armenia.

“I confirm that our position on Nagorno Karabakh remains unchanged,” she said, also reminding Lavrov’s own comments on the issue at an open press conference in Yerevan: “The Minister’s remarks were rather detailed and leave nothing to be added.”
