The Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) authorities are in active dialogue with the command staff of the Russian peacekeeping troops deployed in the country, the Artsakh Information Center said on Friday.

“No effort is spared for the Russian party to take relevant measures at all levels within its mission to make the Azeri troops, that invaded the village of Parukh of the Askeran region on March 24, withdraw to their starting positions,” the statement said.

At the same time, the Artsakh military is taking additional measures to ensure the security of nearby villages, it added.

“We anticipate that as a result of the sustainable work, the Russian peacekeeping mission will be able to resolve the issues that have arisen in its sphere of control. After the withdrawal of the Azerbaijani troops, the civilian population will return to their homes with additional security guarantees,” the Information Center said.
