Today I recieved Vitaly Milonov, member of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, member of the United Russia (Единая Россия) faction. Discussed the situation created in the region in the aftermath of the Azerbaijani – Turkish – terrorist aggression. We bilaterally emphasized the inadmissibility of actions undermining the stability of the region, including the involvement of foreign and terrorist forces. In a private conversation, I thanked Mr. Milonov for his visit and interest, as well as highlighted the important role the Russian Federation played in settling the conflict and establishing a lasting peace.

The Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Armenia reaffirms hat the units of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Armenia and Artsakh Defense Army are ready to observe the terms of the humanitarian ceasefire signed in Moscow on October 10, as well as to apply the agreed ceasefire monitoring arrangements. In this regard, we urge the international community, in particular the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs, to address directly in their statements and appeals to the side of the conflict which by various means avoids establishing ceasefire and the necessary verification mechanisms for the maintenance of the ceasefire regime.
