Armenian Communist Party asks Putin to Restrain Azerbaijan and Bring Russian Peacekeepers into Conflict Zone

Baku / 06/15/19/ Turan: The Communist Party of Armenia appealed to Russian President Vladimir Putin with an open letter, calling him to "actively intervene" in the negotiation process on the Karabakh settlement.

"The Communist Party of Armenia appeals to you in the conditions of the escalating situation around our republic and the Karabakh conflict.

Over the past year, some international mediators have been trying to intensify efforts for a Karabakh settlement in the absence of consensus between the parties. This led to high expectations of Azerbaijan and aggravation of the situation in the Karabakh conflict zone.

We appeal to you, the President of the ally, to personally intervene in the negotiation process both within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group and by using the possibilities of direct influence on the leadership of Azerbaijan. Only your personal intervention can stop the escalation in the Karabakh conflict zone, which is fraught with the most serious consequences for all the parties.

We also consider it relevant to consider the possibility of locating the Russian peacekeeping contingent in the Karabakh conflict zone, which will correspond to the fundamental interests of the Armenian people.

The Communist Party of Armenia regards as an extremely undesirable process the strengthening of other geopolitical players in the region, in practice only pursuing their own goals, contrary to the interests of all the peoples of the explosive region.

We hope for your direct active intervention in the situation, which may prevent undesirable developments," News.am quotes the appeal.-02D-
