VIDEO: "If you want me to criticize the peacekeepers, I won't do it, enough already". Vardanian expressed his frustration

Russian peacekeepers have a very limited mandate and are few in number here. We must do everything to not only increase the number of Russian peacekeepers but also their ammunition and resolve long-term issues. This was stated by the State Minister of the Republic of Artsakh, Ruben Vardanian, during a video bridge titled 'Artsakh: Month of Blockade' between Stepanakert and Yerevan.

“We will do everything so that the Russian peacekeepers feel better here. They must feel that they play a significant role here, that we are not against them, but stand beside them. Stop targeting the Russians, if the Russian peacekeepers were not here, we wouldn’t be here either. What do you want, for me to criticize? I won't do that. Therefore, we will do everything to ensure they remain here long-term, strengthen their presence, and we stand by them,” said the State Minister of Artsakh.
