U.S., French diplomats expected in Moscow for Karabakh talks - Russia

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Thursday diplomats from France and the United States were expected in Moscow soon to discuss the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

Russia has brokered a ceasefire that secured territorial advances for Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh, where Azeri troops have been battling ethnic Armenian forces over the past six weeks. The accord has triggered demands in Armenia for the resignation of Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
