India Stands Neutral On Armenia Azerbaijan Conflict

Both sides cease hostilities immediately & take possible steps to maintain peace. No open support to Armenia despite Azerbaijan Prime Minister supporting Pakistan on Kashmir.

Full Statement By India:

We have seen a resumption of hostilities between
Armenia and Azerbaijan in the Nagorno-Karabakh
region since the early hours of 27 September 2020
resulting in casualties on both sides.

India is concerned about this situation which threatens
regional peace and security. We reiterate the need for
the sides to cease hostilities immediately, keep
restraint, and take all possible steps to maintain peace
at the border.

India believes that any lasting
resolution of the conflict can only be achieved
peacefully through diplomatic negotiations.

In this regard, we support OSCE Minsk Group’s
continued efforts for a peaceful resolution of the
the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
