Ukraine is closely following the recent developments in the situation at the border between Azerbaijan and Armenia.

We urge the parties to a political and diplomatic settlement of the conflict in compliance with the international law norms, particularly the respect of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of states within their internationally recognized borders.

At the same time, we mention all the worthlessness of any mediation and peacekeeping efforts by the Russian Federation that once again demonstrates its inability to fulfill any taken commitments.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine urges the Ukrainians to refrain from visiting Nagorno-Karabakh region, but also those who are already in the region - to avoid territories of military actions.

For consular assistance, please contact Embassy of Ukraine in Azerbaijan: +994 50 255 75 18 or Embassy of Ukraine in Armenia: +374 7710 02 73.
