SAMARKAND, Uzbekistan,Sept 17,2022:Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Friday that despite the Ukraine conflict, Moscow had enough resources to mediate in a conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan after a series of border skirmishes.
The fighting ended in a ceasefire two days ago after more than 200 people were killed in fighting linked to a decades-old struggle over the disputed enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh.
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev told Putin on Friday that the conflict had “stabilised.”
Both sides blame each other for the deadliest clashes between them since a six-week war over Karabakh in 2020 left thousands dead.
Russia is a military ally of Armenia which also strives for friendly relations with Azerbaijan.
