The issue of the status of Nagorno-Karabakh must be coordinated with the participation of the co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group (Russia, USA, France), but now it is worth focusing not on this, but on the return of peaceful life to the region. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated at the Primakov Readings international forum in Moscow.

“I understand that now many people say that the status of Nagorno-Karabakh remains unresolved. This has to be finally agreed with the participation of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs, who at this stage, probably, should not raise the status problem, but contribute to strengthening confidence-building measures, solving humanitarian issues, so that Armenians and Azerbaijanis again begin to live together in security and economic prosperity. And then, I assure you, in a couple of three years, if we establish such a life, all status problems will be solved much easier,” Lavrov stated.
