Russia sees great potential in the development of the 3+3 regional cooperation platform for the South Caucasus, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at a press conference following talks with his Azerbaijani counterpart Jeyhun Bayramov, APA's Moscow bureau reports.
"We discussed the attempts by the collective West to use the South Caucasus as an arena for geopolitical confrontation. In this context, we see significant potential for regional cooperation in the 3+3 platform, which brings together the three South Caucasus countries – Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Georgia – as well as their neighbors Russia, Iran, and Türkiye," Lavrov said.
According to him, the mechanism is intended to enable the countries of the region and their neighbors to resolve all regional issues through their own efforts, without destructive interference from outside.
"This platform serves to ensure that any regional challenge is addressed by the states of the region and their neighbors themselves, without external destructive interference," the Russian foreign minister stressed.
