The rumors about the expansion of the number of Russian peacekeepers in Karabakh are not true.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.

"We cannot completely separate our peacekeeping mission from the general humanitarian center, and at the same time, we should not confuse them. The humanitarian center established and operating in the region is being strengthened," Peskov said.

It should be noted that the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations, which carries out humanitarian activities in Karabakh, said it would increase the number of its employees. After that, there were rumors that the number of Russian servicemen would be increased.
