It is incorrect to link Armenia-Turkey reconciliation with Karabakh peace process, Russian FM Sergey Lavrov said at the Jan. 14 joint press conference with his Armenian counterpart Edward Nalbandian.
“These two processes are not interrelated. Russia backs Armenia-Turkey rapprochement, however lay down of any artificial demands in this context is wrong and improper,” Lavrov said.
Asked whether Russia postpones its energy interests to Nagorno-Karabakh’s people right for self-determination that was gained by blood, Russian FM replied, “I’ll keep it short — no.”
Lavrov also underlined that his visit to Armenia by no means bears any relation to Turkish Premier’s arrival in Moscow. According to Russian FM, arrangement on Moscow talks with Erdogan was recently reached, whereas agreement on his visit to Armenia – a month ago.
