    Security Council urges halt to Nagorno-Karabakh fighting

    The UN Security Council on Tuesday called on Armenia and Azerbaijan to immediately halt fighting over the separatist territory of Nagorno-Karabakh and urgently resume talks without preconditions.

    The UN’s most powerful body strongly condemned the use of force and backed Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’ earlier call to immediately stop fighting, deescalate tensions and return to meaningful negotiations without delay.
