Russian-Turkish monitoring center in Karabakh to close down
The joint Russian-Turkish monitoring center in Nagorno-Karabakh will cease its operations, Turkish National Defense Ministry spokesperson Zeki Akturk has announced.
"In coordination with Russia and Azerbaijan, the process of terminating the activity of the joint Turkish-Russian monitoring center in the city of Aghdam is ongoing," the Azeri media quoted him as saying on Thursday.
Russia and Turkey opened a joint center to observe a ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh in January 2021 in accordance with a memorandum signed by the Russian and Turkish defense ministers on November 11, 2020.
