Russia hopes that international organizations will take part in the process of further settlement of the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the credentials presentation ceremony in the Kremlin, Trend reports with reference to TASS.
"The situation is generally stabilizing in the Nagorno-Karabakh region,” Putin added. “The Russian center for humanitarian response, which will render assistance to residents of the affected districts, restore infrastructure, create conditions for a normal, peaceful life, launches its activity."
"We hope for the significant participation of the relevant international organizations in these efforts,” the Russian president said. “We proceed from the fact that all this creates the preconditions for long-term and full-scale settlement of the long-standing conflict on a just basis in the interests of the Azerbaijani and Armenian peoples."
Following over a month of military action to liberate its territories from Armenian occupation, Azerbaijan has pushed Armenia to sign the surrender document. A joint statement on the matter was made by the Azerbaijani president, Armenia's PM, and the president of Russia.
