Russia, together with other co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, helps the parties to the Karabakh conflict to build confidence, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said, speaking at the IX Moscow Conference on International Security.
''At the end of last year, Russia played, without exaggeration, a key role in stopping the bloodshed in Nagorno-Karabakh and creating conditions for the restoration of peaceful life throughout the Transcaucasia. We continue, together with the other co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, to help the parties to strengthen confidence among themselves, to implement humanitarian projects,'' the Foreign Minister said.
