Nikol Pashinyan himself admitted that Karabakh is Azerbaijan, and this position is recorded in an official document signed by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. The corresponding statement was made by the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry.
Thus, Sergey Lavrov commented on the accusations made by the Armenian side.
"The signing of a document done by Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev under the auspices of the European Union concerning the recognition of each other’s territorial integrity within the 1991 borders means that Karabakh is simply Azerbaijan. That’s it",
the Russian diplomat said.
