"Nothing": Russian peacekeepers failed a mission in Karabas - Pashinyan

According to Armenian Prime Minister, a tripartite treaty was signed in 2020, which obliged the Russians to guarantee the safety of civilians, but this led to a new exacerbation. Armenian Prime Minister Nicol Pashinyan believes that the Russian Federation has failed its mission in Nagorny Karabas, as its peacekeeping contingent has been there since the end of 2020. He stated this in the published video on the social network Facebook on September 21.

According to him, in the Russian media, after the beginning of the Azerbaijani anti -terrorist operation in Nagorno -Karabas, Armenia was allegedly trying to shift responsibility for his failures to Russia. The head of the Armenian government denies this. "We do not translate the blame to anyone for our failures.

There is a tripartite statement of the heads of Armenia, Russia and Azerbaijan of November 9, 2020, which states that the Lachinsky corridor should be fully under the control of the Russian peacekeeping contingent, that the peacekeeping contingent must the safety of civilians, " - said Nicol Pashinyan. It has been separately stated that the Armenian authorities have regularly indicated that the promised processes have not been in the right one and a half years.

Yerevan does not deny that the great responsibility was on it, but that does not mean that it is worth forgetting about the actions and promises of Moscow. "We carry our share of responsibility, but that does not mean that we have to close our eyes to the lapses of Russia's peacekeeping contingent in Nagorno -Karabas.

If Russian peacekeepers could reach the agreement around the truce between Karabakh and Azerbaijan, why they did nothing before the Azerbaijan attack on Nigrian Karabakh, ”Nicol Pashinyan continued. He is also interested in why the Kremlin did not perform intermediary activities when the first reports of the Azerbaijan environment appeared in the territory. Representatives of the Russian Federation did not respond to the statements of the Armenian minister at the time of material publication.

We will remind, on September 19, the Government of Azerbaijan declared the beginning of an "anti -terrorist operation" in the territory of the Armenian enclave in Nagirno -Karabas. On the same day, protesters in Yerevan began storming the government's building. The building of the Embassy of the Russian Federation was also blocked. On September 20, information about the surrender of Karabakh in front of Azerbaijan appeared.
