A year has passed since the end of hostilities in and around Nagorno-Karabakh, unparalleled in their cruelty in terms of the degree of bitterness of the parties and the weapons used. Only Russia was able to invite both sides to the negotiating table and achieve the signing of a joint (!) Declaration of peace, which the peoples had been waiting for. Over the past period, clashes have repeatedly occurred between Armenia and Azerbaijan, but did not reach major hostilities.
But even after the signing of the joint statement, Russia did not abandon both peoples to their fate. She sent her peacekeepers to the region, who, observing strict neutrality, will help the parties to establish a peaceful life.
