The Russian Foreign Ministry called "absolutely incomprehensible" Pashinyan's reasoning about the withdrawal of Russian peacekeepers from Karabakh

The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said during a briefing that the arguments about the withdrawal of Russian peacekeepers from Nagorno-Karabakh are “absolutely incomprehensible”, especially against the background of the current extremely difficult humanitarian situation.

“Is this the wish of Mr. Pashinyan? It is common knowledge that peacekeepers perform important functions. Really, from the point of view of the leadership of Armenia, this activity is unnecessary, undesirable?” Zakharova asked. According to her, after the Armenian leadership recognized Karabakh as Azerbaijani, any claims against the Russian Federation about the lack of efforts look doubly inappropriate.
