Bahrain’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed, on Saturday, the ceasefire between warring parties in Nagorno-Karabakh, praising the two countries’ keenness on stopping escalation in order to preserve security and stability.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed its appreciation for the great efforts made by the Russia to reach this important agreement.
It also expressed its aspiration that this step would lead to a constructive dialogue between Azerbaijan and Armenia to reach a political solution to this conflict, in a way that contributes to achieving the aspirations of the two peoples for security, peace and stability.
It is worth mentioning that, yesterday, a ceasefire between Armenia and Azerbaijan went into effect to end nearly two weeks of heavy fighting over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region.
Officials in the disputed region and Azerbaijani forces accused each other of firing missiles and rockets on civilian areas on Saturday morning, shortly before the ceasefire was due to start.
