Sergey Lavrov tells UN General Assembly time was ripe for trust-building measures
General Assembly on Saturday that time was ripe for trust-building measures between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh, and that Moscow’s troops would help that.
Lavrov accused the West of trying to force themselves as mediators between the two countries, which he said was not needed. “Yerevan and Baku actually did settle the situation,” Lavrov said. “Time has come for mutual trust-building. There are Russian troops who will certainly help this,” he said via translation.
Russia has peacekeeping missions in Nagorno-Karabakh, a separatist Armenian enclave inside Azerbaijan where Baku launched an offensive this week.
