According to Russia's TASS news agency, Azerbaijani President Aliyev said on the 7th that after the fierce military conflict in the Nagorno-Karabakh region ends, Azerbaijan will return to negotiations with Armenia.

In an interview with AFP reporters in the capital Yerevan on the 6th, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said that conflict resolution is based on mutual concessions; if Azerbaijan is ready to make some concessions on the issue of the Nagorno-Karabakh region, Armenia can make concessions.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu also discussed the situation in the Nagorno-Karabakh region with Armenian Defense Minister Tonoyan and Azerbaijani Defense Minister Gasanov on the phone on the 7th.

These good news have brought good news to the soldiers and civilians of both countries who are deeply mired in the quagmire of war. We sincerely hope that this war can end soon.

The Nagorno-Karabakh region is located in the southwest of Azerbaijan, and most of its residents are Armenians. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Azerbaijan and Armenia went to war over the ownership of the Nagorno-Karabakh region. In 1994, Azerbaijan and Armenia reached an agreement on a comprehensive ceasefire under the mediation of Russia and other international organizations, but the two countries have been in a state of hostility over the Nagorno-Karabakh issue, and armed conflicts between the two sides have occurred from time to time.
