▪️Direct phone call between Armenia-Azerbaijan MFAs
▪️Minsk Group essentially disappears
▪️...
#russia

2/11 - On 06 April Arm. and Az. leaders meet w/ their EU counterpart, goal to create a bilateral committee for border delimitation (straying away from a trilateral one with Russia as mediator). NK did not appear to occupy a significant place in the discussions. (1, 2)

3/11 - On 11 April Arm-Az MFA's held a direct telephone conversation, possibly the first one ever (if not the first one in decades), discussing border delimitation, preparation for peace negotiations and humanitarian matters. (3, 4)

THREAD -1/18 - #Russia and #Azerbaijan sign a 40-point declaration forming a strategic alliance for coop. in economic, military, cultural, political and security fields, among others (1). What could this mean for #NagornoKarabakh?

#armenia #ukraine

2/18 - The declaration, based on the 1997 Friendship agreement, 2008 Strategic Partnership and the 2018 economic cooperation agreement, but goes more in detail. It shares many parts of the previous texts, but elaborates further...

3/18 - of the 40 points, 14 are on politico-military cooperation, 16 on bilateral trade/economic coop., 4 on boosting cultural ties, 1 each on parliamentary and health cooperation, the remainder on general international norms (UN, OSCE, etc.) and their importance for both sides.

Putin gives an interview providing details on the situation in #NagornoKarabakh. He touches upon history and geopolitics, all the way down to the joint Turkish-Russian peacekeeping mission. Here are some highlights:

#azerbaijan #armenia #russia #turkey

Putin - "The most important thing about the ceasefire is that we stopped the bloodshed, officially around 4000 people were killed, but I believe it was even more, thousands of wounded… this isn’t a film, this is a tragedy that takes place in the life of concrete people”

MINUTE 1:00 - To understand what is happening, we must go back in time, this all started in 1988 with ethnic clashes in Sumgayit, Azerbaijan, at that time ethnic Armenians suffered, this spread to Nagorno Karabakh, and because the Soviet authorities at the time did not react...

Hopefully Turkish soldiers will be in #NagornoKarabkh and other parts of Azerbaijan for the peace mission to control the ceasefire regime, they will be tasked in the Russian-Turkish Monitoring centre and other areas in #Azerbaijan
