Video: Russia’s Defense Ministry Claims Western Platforms Force Peace Agreement on Baku and Yerevan

Armenia and Azerbaijan are being offered to sign a peace agreement exclusively on Western platforms, with 'mediating' services being imposed. This was stated by the Russian Minister of Defense, Andrei Belousov, during a meeting of the CSTO defense ministers in Kazakhstan.

“NATO seeks to strengthen its positions in the Caucasus, gain access to the resources of the Caspian Sea, and establish a direct route to Central Asia,” Belousov emphasized.

He also pointed out that Georgia is being pushed towards active anti-Russian actions, with the West financing protests and destabilizing the situation.

The minister noted that the main source of instability in the Central Asian region remains Afghanistan.
