Putin, Pashinyan hold separate talks after summit
A meeting between the leaders of Armenia, Russia and Azerbaijan concluded Friday night in Sochi, with the Russian President Vladimir Putin summarizing the meeting as taking place in a “constructive atmosphere.”
The Russian leader told reported that he, along with Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan discussed the current situation in the region, specifically the Karabakh conflict settlement. The three leaders issued a joint statement following the meeting.
“We worked very constructively today. There has been an in-depth analysis of the current situation, we assessed the work of the Russian peacekeepers, border guards, de-mining specialists who ensure the permanent return of people to their settlements,” Putin said.
Putin also highlighted the three areas on which the leaders reach agreements.
“The first is to create demarcation and delimitation mechanisms between the two states by the end of the year. I hope it will happen as soon as possible with no obstacles,” said Putin.
“The second is a very sensitive issue related to humanitarian matters. Here we have also recorded progress,” added the Russian leader, without providing specifics.
“And thirdly, we spoke in great detail about economic issues, the development of economic ties, and first and foremost, discussed the unblocking the transport corridors as a first step. This refers to both the railway and the road links. I think we should thank our Deputy Prime Ministers, who have been working on this for a long time. Next week they will gather in Moscow to make some summaries and announce the decisions we have agreed on today,” Putin summarized.
Following the tripartite meeting, Pashinyan and Putin met separately to discuss regional issues.
“We have come together here to prevent any tragic incident at the border and to move forward,” Putin reportedly told Pashinyan, adding that all the countries in the region are interested in progress in that aspect.
“I hope that the agreements reached today will develop in a positive way in the near future and will be implemented as soon as possible,” Putin said.
The Pashinyan-Putin-Aliyev meeting kicked off in Sochi early Friday evening local time.
At the start of the meeting, Putin told the Armenian and Azerbaijani leaders conditions are being worked out for “peaceful life in Karabakh in the future,” Armenpress reported. At the same time, Pashinyan reminded Aliyev about the return of prisoners of war and other captives from Azerbaijan.
The meeting, which was announced on Wednesday, will touch on issues related to the so-called unblocking of transport links between Armenia and Azerbaijan, in what the Kremlin called earlier Friday the “restoration of trade, economic and transportation communications.”
Before the meeting Putin held a one-on-one meeting with Aliyev, during which the Russian leader touched on the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict and border incidents, said the Kremlin, whose spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said that Putin and Pashinyan will meet separately following the tripartite meeting currently underway.
Earlier on Friday, Russia’s Foreign Ministry said that Moscow was hoping that the meeting would outline the way to normalize relations between Yerevan and Baku.and Baku, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Rudenko told TASS.
“The meeting as a whole aims at summing up the results of the last year after the signing of the trilateral statement on cessation of fire on November 9, 2020, to see what has been done and what could be done to move forward the peace process in the future, how to promote the further normalization process between the two countries in general. We hope that at that meeting the leaders of the three countries, who signed that statement, will outline these prospective directions”, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Rudenko told TASS.
The top diplomat added that there are still well-known issues in the Nagorno Karabakh settlement process.
“They relate to the unblocking of transportation communications, the delimitation of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, where, unfortunately, we witness some armed incidents from time to time, and even people are being killed,” Rudenko said.
Pashinyan and Aliyev are also scheduled to meet in Brussels on December 15 in talks mediated by the President to the European Council, Charles Michel.

You are a small nation…
Your losses are unreplaceable
It was planned genocide …
Why it was not done…???

Start acting…Don’t delay
Something should be done…

“Mothers are mothers where ever they are
their tears will never dry even after they die”
Sylva the mother of the sons that we lost unfairly
Because we did not know how to deal with our beast enemies
We are never a cunning nation
We only know how to carve khachkar…
And call god and his so to save us …
How can they do that…?
Can anyone answer me back?
Do they exist to do it …!!!
I ask you… I feel you lost your astrocytes
Awake … act fast before we lose
all ourSons… all our lands

… Because we did not know how to deal with our beast enemies….., or we did not know how to work together and not blame and depend on others but ourselves, the blame is not on our enemies, the blame was and still is on us.
We did know how to deal with our enemy because we had already done so over a quarter century ago. We dealt with them and took care of them throughout those years and even a few years ago before the latest imposed war during the 4-day April war of 2016 when they launched a similar attack but lasted only less than a week and ran back to their caves with massive loses. So much so that they had to bury their dead in mass graves and in the dark of the night and out of the sight of their state-controlled media so as not to expose the reality of that war to avoid internal rebellion against the Aliyev’s criminal gang. Even during the latest war, they deliberately hid the number of their dead soldiers but always reported and inflated the number of their civilian casualties. They lost 5-6 times as many fighters as we did but they hide and underreport the number to avoid demoralizing their public. They did the same in the first war. Their leaders are experts in falsification and crisis control to save their own necks.
One key aspect of the 2020 war that many people seem to forget and constantly ignore is the fact that this was not a war between the Armenians and the Azerbaijanis alone for if that were the case the result would have been the same as before. I’m not trying to sugarcoat anything here but facts are facts and the fact is that this war was planned in advance by NATO member terrorist Turkey and it was dictated and conducted by their military officers using Azerbaijani armed forces and with members of their own armed forces embedded into the Azerbaijani army. The Turkish military was in command of this war and not Azerbaijan. For 45 days Azerbaijan neither had a government nor an army. They were both handed over to terrorist Turkey to do their dirty work.
Watch the news clips of the events around the 2020 war and you will see with your own eyes that it was the head of the Turkish military warning and threatening the Armenians and not that of Azerbaijan. Imagine if Russia, with all its power, stood by Armenia and threatened Azerbaijan. What do you think the result of that would be? Let’s be realistic here. We seem to forget that, despite all our shortcomings, Armenian forces were not just fighting the enemy they had defeated and humiliated some thirty years ago but that they were fighting half a dozen enemies who collaborated together in different ways. I’m talking about terrorist Turkey, artificial Azerbaijan, terrorist Pakistan, devil-worshiping terrorist Syrian jihadist paid-mercenaries, Belarus and morally-bankrupt Israel. We don’t talk about these criminals and I don’t know why. Just like Israel sold over five billion dollars’ worth of deadly weapons to Azerbaijan, such as kamikaze military droves and long-range missiles and logistic support, imagine if Armenia did the same and sold Hamas that much firepower to be used against the Israelis. How do you think the world would react to that when they remained silent about their collaboration with Azerbaijan? The entire world would have condemned Armenia and punished it but they get away with their criminal activities because they have power and hide behind their victimhood they constantly exploit to shield their criminal activities.
Azerbaijan surely had the resources, wealth and man power, to start the war but they lacked military competence to accomplish anything significant and we saw the evidences and consequences of any and all Azerbaijani hostile moves. They don’t have the military intellect to accomplish much against the Armenians by themselves. This is a fact. Aliyev was warning the Armenians not to get the Russians involved in the latest war WHILE he not only had the Turks on their side but that he handed his army over to the Turks. He was afraid of the Armenians and their resolve on his own and he also had to pay for and buy this war with petrodollars just like his late father had tried some thirty years and failed. This time we failed because we failed to keep terrorist Turkey out of this conflict militarily and I’m convinced if Turkey was kept out of this war, either there would not have been a war, if there was one it would have been a very short and quick one like before, or Azerbaijan would have lost another 20% of its occupied Armenian territories and gone crying to the world. Azerbaijan can NEVER defeat Armenia on its own!
