"Russia has always been consistent in its support to territorial integrity of Azerbaijan".
The due announcement was made by Russian ambassador to Azerbaijan Vasily Istratov.

He said the three co-chairs of the Minsk group made a solidary decision to vote against the resolution presented to the UN General Assembly.

"The co-chairs consider that the text of the draft resolution is not balanced. They state that some moments are absent in the text".

The ambassador also added that the mediator-countries have repeatedly asked to balance the text however Azerbaijan demanded to introduce the document for discussion without amendments and alterations. Vasily Istratov also commented on changing the composition of of the OSCE Minsk Group.

"The composition changing is a complicated process. I think the co-chairs are active and they have confirmed their intention to assist the countries in the settlement of this issue", he noted.
