It is challenging to overestimate Putin's efforts in the direction of de-escalation between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Dmitry Peskov

"It is difficult to overestimate Russia's role in settling the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Russian President Vladimir Putin is making every effort to defuse the situation," Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of the Russian President, said in a conversation with journalists.

"It is difficult to overestimate the role of the Russian Federation, Putin personally. Naturally, the president is making every effort to ease tension on the border. Those efforts continue," said Peskov.

Moreover, he did not comment on Moscow's intentions regarding Yerevan's request for help from the CSTO. "I would not like to say more now; work is being done, various agreements are being made; I would not want to announce anything until the agreement process is over," Peskov said. "TASS" agency reports about this.
