The speaker of Russia’s Federation Council, Valentina Matviyenko, said that Russia is contributing more to the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict than other countries. She noted that this is the most protracted conflict in the former Soviet Union.
"In my opinion, now it should be clear that it is creating nothing but trouble for every side," she said, adding that the search for ways to resolve it is very slow.
"Our position on this issue is consistent. Russia stands for its political settlement, which excludes the resumption of war, bloodshed, the risk of a humanitarian catastrophe," she stressed.
According to the speaker, the establishment of cultural cooperation between the two nations will improve the political dialogue between Yerevan and Baku, News.am reports.
