Moscow stands for maintenance of Karabakh ceasefire agreement: Lavrov

PanARMENIAN.Net - Moscow stands for the maintenance of the Nagorno Karabakh ceasefire that has an unlimited duration, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Friday, April 22 in Yerevan.

“We understand the graveness of the current situation in the conflict zone,” Lavrov said at a meeting with his Armenian counterpart Edward Nalbandian.
