We have made a great contribution to the elimination of injustice that has continued in Karabakh for 30 years, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stated, RIA Novosti reported.

"Yesterday I had a telephone conversation with honorable [Russian] President [Vladimir] Putin. We discussed the steps that will be taken to resolve the issue in Karabakh. Turkey, Russia, and Azerbaijan will be the guarantors of peace in the region," Erdogan added, addressing the Turkish parliament.

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— which Azerbaijan had launched on September 27—in and around Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh). Accordingly, Russian peacekeepers are 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.
