Zakharova: Paris portrays peacekeeping in Transcaucasia against the backdrop of failure in Africa. She added that Russia assumed and performed the entire peacekeeping role as a mediator.
In November, the Russian leader's press secretary, Dmitry Peskov, said that Western countries were making attempts to destabilize the situation around Nagorno-Karabakh. He was speaking on the “Sunday Evening with Vladimir Solovyov” program on the Russia 1 channel. The Russian Foreign Ministry has no comment on Zakharova's comments.
