Russia urges Armenia and Azerbaijan to take additional measures to stabilize the situation in the zone of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. "We are concerned about the situation in the zone of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. As a result of the frequent cases of ceasefire violations there are victims among the military. There is also information about wounded among the civilians", ITAR-TASS quotes the commentary of the Russian Foreign Ministry.
The diplomats stress that an escalation of violence would inevitably cause "a negative effect on the process of the Karabakh conflict regulation. It would be complicated to implement the agreements of the Azerbaijani-Armenian summit in Vienna on November 19, 2013". Moscow urges the sides to take measures to stabilize the situation, including the mechanisms stipulated by the 1995 ceasefire agreement.
