(Reuters) – Russia’s foreign ministry on Monday urged Armenia and Azerbaijan to comply with a 2020 ceasefire agreement, as it expressed “serious concern” about escalating tensions over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region.
Azerbaijan on Sunday established a checkpoint at the start of the Lachin Corridor, the only road route linking Armenia to Nagorno-Karabakh, in what Armenia called a “gross violation” of a Moscow-brokered 2020 ceasefire agreement between the two sides.
