"Yes, indeed, we meet regularly and discuss various issues. Today we will also discuss bilateral agenda and regional issues. We will also discuss the situation in Nagorno-Karabakh, the area of responsibility of the Russian peacekeepers; unfortunately, the humanitarian situation there remains tense. There has been no gas and electricity in Nagorno-Karabakh for several months, and the situation in the Lachin Corridor continues to be quite tense. By the way, I must emphasize that now the supplies of food to Nagorno Karabakh are carried out with the support of Russian peacekeepers; it is a limited amount of food. The humanitarian crisis in Nagorno-Karabakh continues and is also a critical issue. I am sure we will discuss it today," said the RA Prime Minister.

The meeting of the participants of the sessions of the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council and the Council of Heads of Governments of the CIS with the President of the Russian Federation also took place.
