“No, the meetings are not continuing. You know that there are fundamental issues that must be agreed upon. There is no point in discussing the details if there is no consensus,” he said in response to the journalist’s pertinent question.
The tripartite commission was created in early 2021 at the meeting of the leaders of Russia, Azerbaijan and Armenia in Moscow. They decided to create a working group at the level of deputy prime ministers of the three countries, which will focus on establishing economic and transport relations in the region.
