I would like to say so much to our and other traveling salesmen from politics, sofa analysts who love to love their homelands without leaving their personal comfort zone. Maria Zakharova, official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, wrote this on Facebook.

“But now I don't want to [reflect on them] because there are stronger emotions and more important words. They appear when I look at photographs of Russian peacekeepers in the Nagorno-Karabakh [(Artsakh)] [conflict] zone. Guys, thanks! Success on your noble mission. We pray for you!” Zakharova added. 

On November 9, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, and Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a joint statement on a complete cessation of hostilities in and around Artsakh. Accordingly, Russian peacekeepers will be deployed in the region to monitor the implementation of the ceasefire and the cessation of hostilities. But this statement also stipulates the handover of part of Artsakh lands to Azerbaijan.
