Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke by phone Tuesday with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron on the situation in the recently liberated Nagorno-Karabakh region, according to the Kremlin.

Putin underlined that conditions in the region have improved and the Nov. 9 agreement is being complied with, the Kremlin said in a written statement.

The two leaders confirmed their mutual readiness for further coordination on various aspects of the Nagorno-Karabakh issue within the OSCE Minsk Group, the statement added. The Minsk Group was set up in 1992 by the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE).

Relations between the former Soviet republics of Armenia and Azerbaijan have been tense since 1991 when the Armenian military occupied Nagorno-Karabakh – also known as Upper Karabakh, a territory recognized as part of Azerbaijan – and seven adjacent regions.

New clashes erupted on Sept. 27 and ended with a Russia-brokered truce 44 days later.

Baku liberated several strategic cities and nearly 300 of its settlements and villages from occupation during this time.

Putin and Macron also discussed the issue of Eastern Ukraine, showing interest in activating the initiatives for the implementation of the 2015 Minsk agreements and the decisions adopted at the Normandy Summit on Dec. 9, 2019.

The Russian side emphasized that Donbas should be given a special status and the "Steinmeier Formula" should be included in Ukraine's legislation, and both sides agreed to continue the work as part of the Normandy Format.

In 2014, Russia annexed Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula, a move widely viewed as illegal by the international community, including Turkey and the United Nations.

Kyiv also blames Moscow for separatist violence in its eastern Donbas region, which borders Russia.

The two leaders also discussed the situation in Syria and Libya along with the need to cooperate to protect the Iranian nuclear deal.
