The situation in the South Caucasus tends to improve. This is what the Secretary of the Russian Security Council Sergei Shoigu said at the 14th meeting of the Secretaries of the Security Councils of the Commonwealth of Nations.
According to him, the Armenian-Azerbaijani normalization brings results and the actual establishment of peace in the region. He expressed his belief that it is of great importance to lift the blockade of transport communications, on which agreements were reached within the framework of a tripartite working group at the level of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan.
"At the same time, all logistics projects must be financially justified and be profitable," Shoigu said.
He also touched on relations with Georgia and welcomed the active development of Georgian-Russian trade and economic relations. At the same time, he emphasized that regional problems must be solved through political and diplomatic means without the intervention of external countries.
"In this context, it is important to renew the work of the 3+3 regional consultative platform," Shoigu noted.
