The heads of government of the EU member states have called on Turkey to stop interfering in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and to play a constructive role in the process of de-escalation.

This was announced by the President of the European Council Charles Michel during a briefing on the results of the first day of the EU summit in Brussels.

"Yes, everyone should have a more constructive role to contribute to the de-escalation of the situation. We want to stop the foreign intervention. It complicates the situation," he said, answering a reporter's question. The latter quoted French President Emanuel Macron's earlier statement that more than 300 Syrian extremists have been transferred to Karabakh via Turkey.

As stated in the summit statement: "The European Council calls for an immediate end to hostilities and a reaffirmation of our commitment to a ceasefire and a peaceful settlement of the conflict."
