Peace may be coming to the South Caucasus as negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan seem to have made progress said Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan at the Yerevan Dialogue 2024 international forum.
“Thirteen articles and the preface of the draft peace agreement are fully agreed upon, 3 articles are partially agreed, they consist of two sentences literally. We propose to sign the agreed articles as soon as possible,” Pashinyan said at the forum in Yerevan, naming the peace in the South Caucasus not only possible but also realistic, reported Russian state news agency TASS.
According to Pashinyan, the part of the peace agreement agreed upon so far includes a provision on “establishing diplomatic relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan.”
The Armenian prime minister also said that the security of future transportation communications with Azerbaijan, located on the Armenian territory, should be ensured exclusively by the Armenian side. “No partner can tell us that we have not fulfilled the points of the trilateral statement of November 9, 2020, yet Armenia can argue that other signatories of this document have not fulfilled all the points envisaged,” he added.
“We can achieve peace in the South Caucasus. When we look at the peace talks between Azerbaijan and Armenia today, we see that this is possible. Approximately 80% of the text of the peace agreement has been agreed upon. We hope the negotiations will result in the signing of the peace agreement,” said Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. Aliyev spoke at the Ambrosetti Forum, held annually in early September in the town of Cernobbio on the shores of Lake Como, Italy.
