Russia is extremely outraged that shots have been fired again, especially since there are casualties, Russian State Duma deputy Konstantin Zatulin told "Lurer".
"Russia has always been in favor of a peaceful settlement of this conflict and considered hostilities inadmissible, and if there were, as in 2016, it immediately demanded an end to them.
Yes, Nagorno Karabakh, the Republic of Artsakh, is an unrecognized state, but that does not mean that the lives of the people of Karabakh are less valuable than the lives of other people living anywhere in the world.
The large-scale resumption of the Karabakh conflict threatens to destabilize the entire Caucasus region, and Russia considers itself a Caucasian country and cannot be indifferent. Everyone knows that Russia has not taken on any obligations related to Karabakh, but Russia has obligations to Armenia as a state that is a member of a common military-political alliance with us.
Everyone should understand that an attack on Armenia is considered an attack on all CSTO member states", Zatulin said.
