The Azerbaijani adventurism has greatly harmed the Nagorno Karabakh negotiation process. This was stated by Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian during the joint press conference with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Yerevan.

“Along with Russian, with other co-chairing countries, by overcoming the continuous obstacles created by Baku, by reiterating the 1994, 1995 ceasefire agreements, we try to ensure normal conditions to return the settlement process to normality. We both agree that the use of force is unacceptable. There is no alternative to the negotiating settlement. The condemnation of the use of force by the international community is especially important, so that Baku doesn’t have illusion that it can solve issues militarily”, “Armenpress” reports Nalbandian saying.

The Minister said that the visit is taking place in conditions where the core of the talks are the consequences of the recent Azerbaijani attacks. Most important parts of the discussions were held on this issue. Nalbandian said that from the very beginning of the Azerbaijani attacks on April 2, he was in constant contact with Russian FM Lavrov. Lavrov is on an official visit in Armenia at the invitation of Nalbandian. Serzh Sargsyan is scheduled to receive him. Within the framework of the official visit, Lavrov paid tribute to the victims of the Armenian Genocide in Tsitsernakaberd Memorial Complex.
