ArmInfo. Anna Naghdalyan, press secretary of the RA Ministry of Foreign Affairs, commented on the statement of Artsakh presidential candidate Vitaly Balasanyan about the meeting of the Armenian and Azerbaijani foreign ministers in Geneva. It should be noted that, referring to the meeting, Balasanyan stated that "the issue of building joint settlements of Azerbaijanis and Armenians in the southern part of Kashatag and Lachin region" and "the deployment of peacekeeping forces there" was discussed.
<We again strongly reject such faulty assumptions, which have nothing to do with reality. We are closely following the election campaign in Artsakh. For the benefit of our national goals and aspirations, in the struggle for the post of a representative elected by the people of Artsakh, we urge not to use the theme of a peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict as an instrument of internal political struggle and to refrain from disseminating obviously false and provocative information>, Naghdalyan notes.
