Galuzin commented on the process for the settlement of the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan. He noted that Russia's task today is to help the two countries in their search for reconciliation and peaceful cooperation.

"Under the auspices of Russia, at the initiative of [Russian] President Vladimir Putin, the foundations of relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan were established," the Russian official emphasized.
