Now Brussels, concerned about its geopolitical ambitions, imposes its "mediation services" on Azerbaijan and Armenia, bringing instability to the South Caucasus, together with Washington. This was stated by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia, Sergey Lavrov, in his article entitled "Compliance with the principles of the UN Charter in their entirety and interconnection is the key to international peace and stability." "Now that the leaders of Yerevan and Baku have settled the issue of mutual recognition of the sovereignty of the two countries, the time has come for a peaceful life, for the settlement of trust. Russian peacekeeping contingent [in Nagorno-Karabakh] is ready to contribute to this in every possible way," added the Russian foreign minister.
