The main result of the truce in Nagorno-Karabakh, according to press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov, is that the "guns are silent".


"We need to address military experts," he said, answering a question about how the Kremlin assesses the results of the first week of peace in Nagorno-Karabakh. - "But first of all, we need to be guided by the fact that the guns are silent. That is the main result. People do not die. It is the most valuable thing that can be.


At the same time, Peskov did not comment on the statement of the US State Department that Washington and Paris were waiting for details about Turkey's role in the Karabakh conflict. "We certainly would not like to comment in any way on the bilateral relations of the Co-Chairs with the Republic of Turkey. We have our own bilateral relations, which we value," Peskov said. "If our co-chairing partners in the Minsk Group need clarification, there is no doubt that these clarifications will be provided. All the more so as our diplomatic agencies now have regular contacts on Karabakh affairs," he added.


The Kremlin representative noted that the main thing for Russia was to ask how to preserve the recently established peace in Nagorno-Karabakh, how to ensure the return of all displaced persons and refugees and how to monitor the preservation of this peace.
