Armenia's MFA assesses the Turkish-Azerbaijani military drills at Armenia's and Artsakh’s borders and near the Lachin corridor as an action harming the steps aimed at de-escalation.
''We regard the holding of Turkish-Azerbaijani military exercises at the borders of Armenia and Artsakh and near the Lachin corridor as an action harming de-escalation steps, which does not correspond to the spirit of the trilateral statement of November 9, 2020 and undermines efforts to establish long-term peace, security and stability in the region'', Armenian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Vahan Hunanyan told in an interview to Sputnik Armenia.
