However, the Armenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that “the infiltration of the Azerbaijani units into the area of responsibility of the Russian peacekeeping contingent in Nagorno-Karabakh continues.”

“We expect that the Russian peacekeeping contingent in Nagorno-Karabakh will take concrete measures to stop the infiltration of Azerbaijani troops into the area of responsibility of the peacekeepers and to withdraw the Azerbaijani armed forces. We consider it important to carry out proper investigation of the actions of the peacekeeping contingent during the whole period of the infiltration of the Azerbaijani units and to receive answers to a number of questions,” Armenian ministry said in a statement,” the ministry had said in a news release.
