Mr. Chair, I think the committee members have all seen many examples of Russian propaganda and disinformation. I'll make it clear that we cannot take anything Moscow says at face value. Certainly, we're seeing extensive criticism of the performance—or lack thereof—of the Russian peacekeepers, from both the population of Nagorno-Karabakh and the Armenian government.
Efforts to integrate the trade corridors will remain key elements of the discussions as they go forward. In terms of reaching a peace agreement, this is one of the principles agreed to in the 2020 ceasefire. Prime Minister Pashinyan of Armenia has repeatedly indicated that this is something that can be discussed, but it also requires reciprocal treatment and for the trade corridors throughout the south Caucasus to be opened up.
