The Russian President, Vladimir Putin, has said Moscow is worried about a fresh clash between ex-soviet Countries, Armenia and Azerbaijan.
Putin calls on the historic rivals to negotiate solutions to their border disputes.
The President on Tuesday said; “Any conflict scenario between Countries close to us cause us serious concern. We call on everyone to exercise restraint, strictly observe the ceasefire and firmly follow the tripartite statements of the leaders of Russia, Azerbaijan and Armenia.’’
The fighting began last week between both countries, with more than 200 people dead. The worst record since the war between both parties in 2020. The six-week war of 2020, ended with more than 6,500 deaths and a Russian peace deal, with Moscow dispatching thousands of peacekeeping forces.
Putin’s call for peace comes after United States Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, on Monday, called for peace  between the ex-soviet Countries, in a meeting with both Countries’ top diplomats for the first time since the deadly border clashes.
