Azerbaijan Sunday warned Russia over allowing illegal entries of vehicles belonging to other countries into the country, contradicting the agreement signed between Baku, Moscow and Yerevan.

"The Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Azerbaijan has sent letters to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and the Command of Peacekeeping Forces regarding the illegal entry of vehicles belonging to other countries into the territories of the Republic of Azerbaijan, where peacekeepers of the Russian Federation are temporarily deployed," the ministry said in a written statement.

The ministry said that it wrote in the letters that such cases "contradict" the joint statement signed by the presidents of Azerbaijan and Russia, and the Armenian prime minister, and "asked to prevent them."

"No individual or legal entities of other countries and their vehicles can enter the territory of Azerbaijan without the agreement of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and such cases are considered to be a violation of the law of the Republic of Azerbaijan," the readout said.

On Nov. 10, 2020, following a 44-day conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh and surrounding regions, the two countries signed a Russia-brokered cease-fire to end the fighting and work toward a comprehensive resolution.

During the six weeks of fighting, Azerbaijan liberated several cities and some 300 settlements and villages after a nearly three-decade-long occupation.

In line with the agreement, Armenian forces withdrew from Azerbaijani territories and Russian peacekeeping forces were deployed in the region.

Meanwhile, Turkey and Russia also set up a joint center to monitor the peace deal in January.
