The foreign ministers exchanged views on a number of international and regional agenda issues. “Particular emphasis was placed on the necessity for the practical implementation of previously agreed steps aimed at the rapid de-escalation of the situation around Nagorno-Karabakh, including the unblocking of humanitarian routes, particularly the Lachin corridor,” the statement said.
