MOSCOW, November 14. /TASS/. The ceasefire is being observed along the entire engagement line in Nagorno-Karabakh, Russian Defense Ministry Spokesman Major-General Igor Konashenkov said on Saturday.

"The ceasefire is being observed along the entire engagement line," the general said.

Also "12 observation posts of the Russian peacekeeping contingent have been set up along the engagement line in the area of the peacekeeping operation as of November 14 and they are monitoring the situation round-the-clock," he added.

An exchange of the bodies of servicemen killed on the battlefield around the town of Shusha has begun with the assistance of Russian peacekeepers, the spokesman said.

On November 9, Russian President Vladimir Putin, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev and Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan signed a joint statement on a full ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh. As the Russian leader said, Azerbaijani and Armenian forces will remain at their current positions while Russian peacekeepers will be deployed to the region.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
