Armenia is ready to negotiate with Azerbaijan over the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, but these negotiations must be true negotiations, and not an imitation of them, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said in an interview to the Russian newspaper Komersant.
In the meeting with the Russian-Armenian businessmen in Moscow, Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan spoke about Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement.
The Azerbaijani troops violated the ceasefire regime nearly 200 times on Artsakh-Azerbaijan contact line in the period of September 2-8, during which over 2000 bullets were fired in the direction of Armenian border guards from different caliber weapons.
Azerbaijan has proved during years that its approach of Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement is war, Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan said in an interview with “Zinuj” program.
On September 2, at 21:00, soldier of Artsakh’s Defense Army Vanik Gevorgyan, born in 1996, has died in one of the military units located in the northern direction still for not fully revealed circumstances (suicide according to preliminary data).
Russia intends to continue contributing to the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, Russian President Vladimir Putin said after a meeting with Azerbaijani counterpart Ilham Aliyev in Sochi, Russia.
A bizarre “initiative” of a group of Azerbaijanis to cross the Artsakh border from the Barda-Aghdam direction by a march has failed, according to Artsakh defense ministry spokesperson Senor Hasratyan.
Azerbaijan has committed more than 150 individual ceasefire violations from August 26th to September 1st in line of contact, according to a statement from the defense ministry of Artsakh.
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has said that the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement will be discussed during his upcoming meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin which is due on September 1 in Sochi, according to Russian media.
