Statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia

We are deeply concerned over the recent escalation of military situation in Syria.

The strongly condemnable use of weaponry against the civil population of Aleppo, including the Armenian neighborhood, that resulted in numerous human losses, is a matter of specific concern.

We express our deep condolences and support to the families and relatives of the killed and wounded.

We hope that all the parties involved in the negotiation process over the settlement of the Syrian conflict will be more determined in the joint fight against terrorism and will be bold in restoring peace through negotiations.
