A commission on the delimitation of the state border between Armenia and Azerbaijan may be created soon, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Andrey Rudenko said in an interview with RIA Novosti.
He recalled that on November 26 in Sochi the leaders of Russia, Azerbaijan and Armenia agreed to establish a bilateral Commission on the delimitation of the state border between Armenia and Azerbaijan with the consultative assistance of Russia.
"We believe that this will happen soon. We do not see any insurmountable obstacles in the way of implementing this agreement at the highest level,” he said.
The Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation noted that from the very beginning of the aggravation of the situation in certain sections of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border in May, Russia acted as a mediator, offering its assistance in launching the corresponding negotiation process between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
“I would like to note that the incidents are not directly related to the zone of responsibility of the Russian peacekeepers. The problem was inherited from Soviet times and is caused by the lack of proper international legal registration of the state border between the two countries along its entire length,” he stressed.
