Lavrov: We see West`s undisguised attempts to embroil Russia and  Armenia and undermine regional security

ArmInfo. We see the undisguised attempts of the West to embroil Russia and Armenia, let's call a spade a spade, to undermine regional security, thinking and  caring not about the interests of the countries located here, but  about their purely geopolitical, selfish interests.

I am sure that such attempts are doomed to failure. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey  Lavrov stated on March 20 at a joint press conference following the  results of negotiations with his Armenian counterpart Ararat  Mirzoyan.

Lavrov said that he had discussed in detail with Mirzoyan the  situation around the Lachin (Berdzor) corridor, and in general in  Nagorno-Karabakh. According to him, the importance of resuming  negotiations on all areas of trilateral agreements between the  leaders of Armenia, Russia and Azerbaijan was noted.

"Taking into account the significant work done to unblock transport  and economic ties in the South Caucasus, we expect that in the near  future the vice-premiers-co-chairs of the working group will be able  to reach specific agreements. We stand for the activation of the  activities of the commission on the delimitation of the  Armenian-Azerbaijani border with the advisory assistance of Russia,  in full accordance with the agreements of the leaders of the three  countries," he said. According to him, Russia is also ready to  further assist in the conclusion of a peace treaty between Baku and  Yerevan.

At the same time, he stressed that the emphasis was placed on broader  regional formats, including the 3+3 consultative platform. "We agreed  to work closely on the main regional and international platforms,  work together to strengthen the CSTO, expand cooperation within the  EAEU and the CIS, support each other's initiatives, primarily within  the UN, and cooperate in the OSCE," he said.

In conclusion, Lavrov expressed his satisfaction with the  negotiations with Mirzoyan.
