/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia is in blockade over the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict and it’s in the national interest to improve the situation,
Russia’s Foreign Minister said.
"Geographical and political outlets are not many but as soon as
the Karabakh settlement becomes a reality, Turkey will help Armenia
connect with the world though establishing diplomatic relations with
it," Sergei Lavrov said.
Direct meetings between the Presidents with the mediators’ assistance
provided a chance to advance before the Caucasus crisis, according to
him. "A substantial document which includes all settlement principles
and mechanisms was developed," he said.
"There are two or three uncoordinated issues left, specifically
the fate of Lachin Corridor. Presidential meetings are likely to
resume after the Azerbaijani election. As a mediator, Russia sees
a possibility to resolve the conflict," Lavrov said in an interview
with Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
