Russia ready to contribute to rapprochement between Armenia,  Azerbaijan - RF MFA 

ArmInfo.  Russia is ready to contribute to the settlement of relations between Yerevan and Baku, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Mikhail Galuzin  told Izvestia.

He noted that the main directions of movement towards it were  outlined in the trilateral agreements of the leaders of the Russian  Federation, Azerbaijan and Armenia in 2020 and 2022.

"We believe that these are the directions we should move in:  preparing a peace treaty, unblocking economic ties and transport  communications in the region, delimiting borders with subsequent  demarcation, establishing a dialogue between civil societies and the  parliaments of Armenia and Azerbaijan. And, of course, the Russian  side, as one of the participants in the trilateral agreements, is  ready to continue to contribute to their implementation. Naturally,  in the form that will be convenient for both parties," he noted.

On July 10, the Prime Minister of Armenia and the President of  Azerbaijan held talks in Abu Dhabi, where various aspects of the  agenda for normalizing interstate relations between Armenia and  Azerbaijan were discussed. It was confirmed that bilateral talks are  the most effective format for discussing all issues related to the  normalization process, and on this basis, it was decided to continue  such a result-oriented dialogue.
