Sabina Mammadli read more Russia continues to fulfill its obligations as a participant in
the trilateral statements on Karabakh, Azernews reports via Russian
Presidential Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov.
The spokes[erson opined that difficult work is conducted with
both Yerevan and Baku.
'Russia, as one of the parties to the trilateral
agreements and documents signed two years earlier, continues to
fulfill its obligations. And it continues very, very painstakingly
and difficult work with both Armenia and Azerbaijan,' Peskov
said.
About 2,000 Russian peacekeepers have been deployed for five
years in Karabakh under the trilateral cease-fire deal signed by
Baku, Moscow, and Yerevan on November 10, 2020. The signed
agreement obliged Armenia to withdraw all its troops from the
Azerbaijani lands that it had occupied since the early 1990s.
The trilateral ceasefire deal signed by the Azerbaijani, Russian
and Armenian leaders on November 10, 2020, ended the three-decade
conflict over Azerbaijan's Karabakh region, which along with the
seven adjacent regions came under the occupation of the Armenian
armed forces in the war in the early 1990s.
The deal also stipulated the return of Azerbaijan's Kalbajar,
Aghdam and Lachin districts. Before the signing of the peace deal,
Azerbaijan liberated 300 villages, settlements, city centers, and
historical Shusha city that had been under Armenian occupation for
about 30 years.
