Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, referring to the closure of the Lachin Corridor, stated that Azerbaijan wants to involve Armenia in a more significant provocation.

According to him, that question should be responded to with consistent and thoughtful steps, "The position of the Russian Federation and the activities of the peacekeeping troops are very important. I said that if it suddenly turns out that Russia is unable to fulfill its obligations for objective or subjective reasons, as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, it should apply to the UN Security Council either to grant the Russian peacekeeping force an international mandate, or to appoint a new peacekeeper. To send a multinational mission to Nagorno-Karabakh, which will ensure the security architecture already approved by the tripartite declaration of November 9. This is our way."

According to him, Armenia's reaction to all this should be asymmetrical,  "We should not deviate at all from the agenda of institutional reforms and the institutional development of the state in RA."

Pashinyan also spoke about security guarantees of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, “The Republic of Armenia is the guarantor of the security of Nagorno Karabakh. The guarantor of RA's security is the Russian Federation. We were guided by that formula. Therefore, if you say that RA could provide its own security, the basis of our security would not be the formula that the Russian Federation is the guarantor of RA's security.”
