evidence: GYUMRI, JUNE 23, ARMENPRESS. Talks are underway with the Russian side over the deployment of Russian border guards in Armenia’s Gegharkunik province, Armenian caretaker deputy prime minister Tigran Avinyan said during a briefing in Gyumri. He, however, noted that this can happen only in case of the complete withdrawal of Azerbaijani troops from Armenia’s territory. [...] "The Azerbaijani armed forces must pull back from Armenia’s sovereign territory, and we will spare no efforts for this. There is a discussion with the Russian side, but the Russian peacekeepers will be deployed only when the Azerbaijani forces pull back", he said.
