Russia is ready to provide advisory assistance to Azerbaijan and  Armenia on issue of delimitation and demarcation of state border

ArmInfo.Russia has accumulated extensive experience in the issue of delimitation and demarcation of the state borders and is ready to provide advisory assistance to  Azerbaijan and Armenia on this issue. This was stated by  Deputy  Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Andrei Rudenko, answering  a TASS question on Thursday on the sidelines of the conference of the  Valdai International Discussion Club.

"Russia would be ready, in case of a corresponding request from Baku  and Yerevan, to provide advisory assistance in this process," the  deputy minister said. We have accumulated experience of such work,  therefore, we are ready to participate, but I repeat once again, if  there is an appropriate appeal and consent of all parties. "

Rudenko noted that the result of the work on resolving the issue of  delimitation and demarcation should be an agreement on the state  border.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that Russia,  within the framework of the Collective Security Treaty Organization,  offered to provide assistance to Baku and Yerevan in resolving the  situation on the border and came up with an initiative to create an  Armenian-Azerbaijani commission for delimitation and demarcation of  the border, in which the Russian Federation could accept  participation as a consultant or intermediary. Answering the question  whether there was any reaction from the sides, Rudenko said that so  far "he does not know about their reaction."
