Armenia has never undertaken any corridor obligations. Pashinyan

Azerbaijan continues to accuse Armenia of not fulfilling its duties and obligations to ensure transport links through its territory, with some ambiguous comments in the corridor. Nikol Pashinyan announced this at the Government session on July 6.

"Here too, I have to repeat that Armenia has never made any written or oral commitments and will never accept any such interpretation," he said.

Referring to regional communications, de-blocking under the sovereignty and jurisdiction of countries, the Prime Minister noted that Armenia has repeatedly declared and declares that it is ready for this.

"A long time ago, a draft decision of the RA government was put into official circulation, which envisages the establishment of three checkpoints on the Armenia-Azerbaijan border by Armenia. That decision is not accepted because of the destructive approach of Azerbaijan, which has not even initiated a similar process and does not want to provide a way for Armenia.

The logic is that the same decision should be made by Azerbaijan, so that both Armenia and Azerbaijan have these checkpoints, and transport infrastructures are unblocked," Pashinyan said.

According to him, Azerbaijan's approach is like this because it has not abandoned its 30-year policy of encircling Armenia. "Azerbaijan continues to accuse Armenia of mine-laying issues as well. First, the International Court of Justice rejected the accusations against Armenia in the matter of mine-laying by its decision of February 22 of this year, and then, in order to show its sincerity and determination in the matter of relations settlement, the Armenian side transferred to Azerbaijan in previous years maps of minefields of all the territories under the latter's control, which are used today in Azerbaijan. large-scale demining works are being carried out. And Azerbaijan did not take any adequate steps in response to this, and continues to illegally keep Armenian prisoners of war and use them as a political bargaining factor."
