ArmInfo. The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova  reacted to the statement of the former American co-chair of the OSCE  Minsk Group Richard Hoagland on the Nagorno-Karabakh settlement.

ArmInfo.Today, we can state that through the 44-day war, at least some of the points and provisions of the "Lavrov plan" were translated into reality. Such  opinion was  expressed by the former Foreign Minister of Artsakh, Ambassador  Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Arman Melikyan.

ArmInfo. "In my speeches, interviews and publications, I have repeatedly expressed the idea that" the key to solving the Karabakh problem is in the hands of  Russia, " which was perceived with bewilderment or anger by political  forces, experts and the current government." This is stated in the  article of the first President of Armenia Levon Ter-Petrosyan,  published on ilur.am.  

ArmInfo.Both Yerevan and Baku consider the problem around Nagorno-Karabakh through the prism of retaining power. This opinion was expressed in an interview with the Armenian service of the Voice of America by the former interim  co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group from the United States Richard  Hoagland, referring to the latest escalation on the  Armenian-Azerbaijani state border.

ArmInfo. The current new  situation presents new opportunities for the Nagorno-Karabakh  (Artsakh) conflict settlement, former U.S. Co- Chair of the OSCE  Minsk Group and Ambassador James Warlick said in an interview to  Voice of America's Armenian Service.

ArmInfo. The most right strategy in moving forward in Karabakh conflict settlement issue is moving by small steps. The former co-chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group  from the USA, Ambassador Richard Hoagland, stated this in an  interview with Voice of America.
