(MENAFN- AzerNews) By Sabina Mammadli
Russia is ready to provide Azerbaijan and Armenia with the most
accurate maps of the Soviet General Staff for the border
demarcation, Azernews reports, citing President Vladimir Putin.
Putin told this to reporters on the sidelines of the trilateral
meeting of the Azerbaijani-Armenian leaders in Sochi on October
31.
Putin noted that the preconditions for the delimitation and
demarcation of the border between Armenia and Azerbaijan have been
found.
'As for the peacekeepers, this is spelled out in our joint
statement in November 2020, when the conflict ended. There is
nothing to add here. We talked about it. But this requires our
joint agreement,' Putin said.
According to him, the decision to extend the mandate of the
Russian peacekeepers depends on other issues - the possible
conclusion of a peace treaty and the delimitation and demarcation
of the border between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
'If these issues are resolved, then the issue of peacekeepers
will stand differently. If not resolved or [resolved] to some
extent, then the fate of our peacekeeping contingent depends on
it,' Putin explained.
To recap, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, Armenian Prime
Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and Russian President Vladimir Putin met
in Sochi on October 31.
