In a joint statement after talks mediated by Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan “agreed not to use force” in their dispute over Nagorno-Karabakh, AFP reported.
Baku and Yerevan also accepted “all disputes on the sole basis of the popularity of mutual sovereignty and territorial integrity,” according to a joint statement followed after the Sochi summit.
A month earlier, the worst clashes between Armenia and Azerbaijan since 2020 had taken place.
The six-week war in the fall of 2020 claimed the lives of more than 6500 military personnel on both sides. It ended with a Russian-brokered settlement in which Yerevan ceded vast territories it had controlled for decades.
Last month, another 286 people on both sides were killed in clashes that threatened the slow pace of the peace process.
The hostilities ended with a U. S. -brokered ceasefire, after the Russians failed to negotiate a truce.
With Moscow isolated after its invasion of Ukraine, the U. S. is in the U. S. The US and the EU took the lead in negotiating peace talks between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
