RA's proposal to extend the mandate of Russian peacekeepers was not accepted, but the issue became an agenda item (VIDEO)
RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan disclosed some details of the tripartite meeting held in Sochi.
Pashinyan informed that "our Russian partners have stated that the correct approach would be to postpone the status of Nagorno-Karabakh for an indefinite period. We have agreed with our Russian partners because this topic will lead to an inevitable crisis."
He referred to the proposal to extend the terms of deployment of Russian peacekeepers in Nagorno-Karabakh. According to Pashinyan, that proposal was not accepted. "Our proposal was not accepted at this stage, but I must record that the issue became an agenda item."
According to him, the guarantee of the security of Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians today is the presence of peacekeepers until reliable mechanisms and contracts of protection are created. "Since a wrong impression may be created, I want to say that our politics before Sochi and after Sochi did not change at all, not even the slightest."
