Mogherini urges foreign ministers of Azerbaijan and Armenia to reduce tensions in Nagorno-Karabakh

Today the head of European diplomacy Federica Mogherini urged the foreign ministers of Azerbaijan and Armenia Elmar Mammadyarov and Edward Nalbandian during conversations to immediately reduce tensions in Nagorno-Karabakh and strictly observe the ceasefire.

"The High Representative, the Vice-Chairwoman of the European Commission, called for an immediate de-escalation of the violence, cessation of shelling civilians and strict observance of the truce by both parties. The High Representative recalled that nobody is interested in a large-scale conflict. The conflict requires a comprehensive and peaceful solution, but not military," a communiqué of the European External Action service (EMS) reports.

In addition, during the negotiations Mogerini recalled that the European Union's efforts are supported by the OSCE Minsk Group and its three co-chairs.
