Moscow has reiterated its key role in establishing peace in the South Caucasus. Russia issued a statement marking the fifth anniversary of the November 9, 2020, trilateral agreement to end the military conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh.
In the statement, the Russian Foreign Ministry highly values its assistance in stabilizing the region in all areas. The text also mentions trilateral working groups and the "3+3" format, which Moscow believes is intended to secure Russia's status as a guarantor of peace.
"Baku and Yerevan still have much to do to make the process of normalizing bilateral relations irreversible, including signing a peace treaty and restoring transport and economic communications. The Russian side is ready to continue to provide its Azerbaijani and Armenian partners with comprehensive assistance in all areas, including within the framework of the 3+3 regional cooperation platform (Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia, Russia, Iran, Turkey),” the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
