Azerbaijani Army's retaliatory measures were only targeted at
military facilities.

agreement and continues shelling Azerbaijani positions in spite of
international calls and Azerbaijan's intention of a humanitarian
ceasefire.

clashes and stabilize the situation. He stressed the importance to
resume the normalization process and negotiations between
Azerbaijan and Armenia. Klaar also stressed that the EU is ready to
create conditions for bilateral meetings between the two
