Now contacts are underway, including with the Azerbaijani side. This was stated by the official representative of the Russian foreign ministry, Maria Zakharova, during Tuesday’s weekly press briefing, and when asked whether Azerbaijan informed Russia about Baku’s “antiterrorist measures” currently being carried out in Nagorno-Karabakh, and how these measures will affect Russia's peacekeeping efforts in the region. "I believe that as a result of the contacts that took place in the near future, a relevant statement will be made by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. As for the notification, we receive that information from the Azerbaijani side," said Zakharova.
