Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of the Russian President, confirmed that during the meeting of Vladimir Putin and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan in Moscow, an agreement was reached on the withdrawal of Russian military and border guards from a number of regions of Armenia, but they will remain on the Armenian border with Turkey and Iran.

“Yes, it is true, in the fall of 2020, at the request of the Armenian side, our military and border guards were deployed in a number of regions of Armenia. “Pashinyan said that today, due to the changed conditions, there is no such need, so President Putin agreed, and the withdrawal of our military and border guards was agreed,” Peskov told “Interfax”.

At the same time, he noted that border guards will remain at the Armenian-Turkish and Armenian-Iranian borders at the request of the Armenian side.

“They will remain there and continue to perform their functions,” said the representative of the Kremlin.
