Since the end of July of this year, there have been no new ideas from the Russian side, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Ani Badalyan said in response to a question by RFE/RL, without elaborating on what proposals the Russian side had conveyed to Armenia and Baku at that time.

Earlier on July 21, the Russian co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, Igor Khovaev, was in Yerevan. Four days later, the foreign ministers of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan held tripartite talks in Moscow. After that meeting, Sergey Lavrov announced the plan to hold a summit of the leaders of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan during this year, which has not been held until now.

And during the bilateral meeting with the Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan, Lavrov announced that a number of documents are being prepared for discussion by the leaders of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Russia, in addition to the statements signed so far. But the contents of those documents have not been published until now.

In an interview with RBC about the new proposals, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin said that Moscow has offered ideas and views to Yerevan and Baku regarding the peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan. The Russian foreign minister's deputy for CIS issues did not specify the content of the Russian proposals. He focused on only two issues: that Moscow considers it necessary to clearly record the rights and security of the Armenian population of Karabakh in the peace agreement, and that mechanisms that do not harm the sovereignty and independence of Armenia and Azerbaijan are needed to facilitate the further implementation of the peace agreement.
