Russian presidential spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia is in constant contact with Azerbaijan and Armenia to resolve the situation in Nagorno-Karabakh, TASS reports.  

“The President is convinced that the implementation of the trilateral statements has no alternative, and now major efforts are being made to mitigate the tension and solve the situation in the border,” Peskov said.

Peskov, however, could not answer the question on whether Putin has received Armenian Acting Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s letter on military assistance. Peskov stated that “all those issues have been repeatedly discussed during the bilateral talks” and added that Russia is in constant contact with Armenia and Azerbaijan over the settlement of the situation around Nagorno-Karabakh.
