Russia is acting as a mediator in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and expects restraint from Armenia and Azerbaijan, Press secretary of the Russian President, Dmitry Peskov said.
According to him, Moscow will continue contacts with the parties.
"Russia will continue to carry out the functions provided by the trilateral documents and calls to avoid such actions that could lead to an increase in tension", said the Kremlin spokesman.
He informed that Vladimir Putin and Nikol Pashinyan had a private conversation in Moscow during the visit of the Armenian Prime Minister dedicated to the Victory Day. Peskov added that Putin's contacts with the Prime Minister of Armenia and the President of Azerbaijan are not planned at the moment, connected to the increasing tension on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.
