Глава МИД Армении:

Страны сопредседатели Минской Группы ОБСЕ продолжат заниматься урегулированием нагорно-карабахского конфликта в прежнем статусе и формате. Об этом в интервью армянским телеканалам заявил глава МИД Армении Эдвард Налбандян.

"Безусловно, нужно продолжать переговорный процесс относительно достижения соглашения по Базовым принципам и ускорить процесс их согласования, учитывая проведенную до этого работу, для того чтобы стало возможно достичь основного соглашения. Атмосфера создания взаимного доверия позитивно повлияет на согласование базовых принципов, однако и в этом случае для составления документа понадобится огромная работа и  посредничество стран сопредседателей. Очень важно чтобы Азербайджан не препятствовал созданию атмосферы взаимного доверия, как это было в прошлом, иначе процесс провалится", - отметил Налбандян.

В качестве мер по созданию атмосферы доверия, которые ускорят процесс переговоров и станут залогом для их стабильного хода, Налбандян отметил важность создания механизмов исследования инцидентов на линии соприкосновения, на что азербайджанская сторона традиционно реагирует с крайним неудовольствием. "Месяц назад в Вене обсуждался бюджет ОБСЕ, где было предложено выделить средства для создания подобных механизмов, на что Азербайджан пригрозил наложить вето на бюджет ОБСЕ.  Таким образом, Баку помешал процессу создания механизмов доверия. Однако очень важно, что в сочинском заявлении президенты поручили нам продолжить этот процесс", - отметил министр.

Налбандян также заметил, что попытки встреч представителей интеллигенции Армении и Азербайджана провалились вследствие антиармянской пропаганды и постоянных провокационных заявлений в Азербайджане. По его словам, подобная атмосфера внутри этой страны никак не способствуют проведению подобных встреч.

Урегулированием карабахского конфликта с 1992 года занимается Минская группа ОБСЕ, представленная сопредседателями от России, США и Франции. В настоящее время процесс урегулирования карабахского конфликта происходит на основе "Мадридских принципов", выдвинутых сопредседателями МГ ОБСЕ в 2007 году в Мадриде и обновленных в 2009 году.

Germany accuses Russia of cyberattacks and disinformation campaign

The German government holds Russia responsible for a cyberattack on German air traffic control, and for targeted disinformation campaigns before the last federal election. According to the German Foreign Office in Berlin, the incidents could be clearly attributed to the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. In response, the Russian ambassador to Berlin was summoned to the Foreign Ministry. "We have been observing a massive increase in threatening hybrid activities by Russia for some time now," a spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry stated. These range from disinformation campaigns and espionage to cyberattacks and sabotage attempts. The aim is to divide society, sow distrust, and undermine confidence in democratic institutions. The spokesperson added that with these actions, Russia is "very concretely threatening our security, not only through its war of aggression against Ukraine, but also here in Germany."  The Foreign Ministry spokesperson explained that the cyberattack on air traffic control in August 2024 was clearly attributed to the hacker collective "APT28," known as "Fancy Bear," and to the responsibility of the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. Furthermore, it could now be "conclusively stated" that Russia had attempted "to influence and destabilize both the last Federal election and the ongoing internal affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany." There was "absolutely irrefutable evidence" for this". The so-called "Storm 1516" campaign, which has been running since 2024, is allegedly backed by "reliable information" that the Moscow-based think tank "Center for Geopolitical Expertise" is behind it. The Center is also said to be supported by Russian military intelligence. Its primary aim is to influence democratic elections in the West. (Click the image to read more).
