Russia will provide Azerbaijan with a response through diplomatic channels to the statement of the republic's Foreign Ministry regarding the requirement not to mention the Karabakh issue, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.

She recalled that Russia, and especially Russian President Vladimir Putin, played a crucial role in resolving the conflict in Karabakh.

"We have consistently sought to create the necessary conditions for resolving this most sensitive and complex issue in relations between Baku and Yerevan… It was thanks to our efforts that we managed to achieve an end to the bloodshed in the fall of 2020," Zakharova said.

She also recalled that thanks to Moscow's efforts, it was possible to launch the process of normalization of relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

However, Zakharova noted that there is still a lot to be done for a final settlement — to sign a peace treaty, resume transport and economic ties, delineate and demarcate borders, and strengthen trust between citizens of the two countries.

Earlier, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry called on Russia "not to use the Karabakh conflict in political discussions."
