"We are also interested in stabilizing the situation in the South Caucasus region, creating conditions for its development and strengthening mutual trust and cooperation," he assured.
For this purpose, Russia is consistently taking steps for the comprehensive normalization of Armenian-Azerbaijani relations in the interests of concluding a peace treaty between these countries, delimitation of borders, opening of transport communications, Patrushev continued.
