Progress in the Settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict, Says Russia's Foreign Ministry

The Russian Foreign Ministry has announced that there are certain moves towards the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. According to TASS, this was stated in responses to media inquiries published on the website of the Russian Foreign Ministry, which were prepared but not voiced at the press briefing of Acting Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

"There are movements in the implementation of 'small steps' that the foreign ministers agreed upon in April 2019, following the agreements reached in Vienna in March 2019 between the President of Azerbaijan and the Prime Minister of Armenia. The situation along the border and contact line is relatively calm. A hotline is operational between Yerevan and Baku," the ministry noted.
