A meeting between the foreign ministers of Armenia, Russia and Azerbaijan was planned to take place on December 23 in Moscow, but Armenia has requested to delay the meeting because now the Armenian Foreign Minister’s priority is to address the uninterrupted restoration of the Lachin Corridor and the issues resulting from the humanitarian crisis in Nagorno Karabakh, the Armenian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Vahan Hunanyan said in response to a query from ARMENPRESS.
‘The Armenian side confirmed its participation in the Moscow meeting over two weeks ago before Azerbaijan’s unlawful blockade of the Lachin Corridor. Obviously Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan’s working priority now is to address the issues of uninterrupted restoration of the Lachin Corridor in line with the 9 November 2020 statement and the humanitarian crisis in Nagorno Karabakh, due to which the Armenian side asked the Moscow meeting to be delayed’.
