Armenia is ready to sign a peace treaty. Pashinyan

We are ready to sign a peace and relations settlement agreement with Azerbaijan by the end of the year. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said this during his speech at the plenary session of the European Parliament in Strasbourg today, October 17, News.am reports.

"In terms of transport communications, by observing the above-mentioned principles, including the principle of reciprocity, we are ready to simplify the procedures, we are ready to ensure the safety of the passage of Azerbaijani goods and Azerbaijanis through our territory, hoping for reciprocity as well, we are ready for a mirror withdrawal of troops from the 1991 border line which will mean that Azerbaijan will not have troops in any territory of Armenia, and Armenia will not have troops in Azerbaijan. We are ready to address the issue of the so-called enclaves on the principle of reciprocity, as I stated in the interview given to the Armenian public television on October 10.

And finally, we are ready to sign a peace and relations regulation agreement with Azerbaijan by the end of the year," the RA Prime Minister emphasized.

Pashinyan noted that the fact that Azerbaijan refused to come to the meeting in Granada, about which the agreement was reached on July 15 in Brussels and this agreement was also expressed in the statement issued by Charles Michel based on the results of the meeting, that not coming to that meeting did not make our affairs easier. :

"But on the other hand, as the President of the European Council mentioned, we have an agreement to hold a tripartite meeting in Brussels this year, and if the above-mentioned principles are officially reaffirmed, it will become very realistic to sign an agreement on peace and relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan by the end of the year," he said.
