The content of the peace treaty with Azerbaijan should adhere to internationally recognized principles, and we must work consistently in that direction, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated during a question-and-answer session in the National Assembly.
Addressing the statement made by Minister of Foreign Affairs Ararat Mirzoyan regarding Azerbaijan’s further military plans against Armenia, Prime Minister Pashinyan noted that such analyses exist, but emphasized that there is no need to deviate from the strategy adopted by Armenia.
“We have adopted a strategy and must consistently follow it. I am not saying that we should not listen to what Azerbaijan says; however, this does not mean that we should change our strategy based on every statement from Azerbaijan. No, our strategy should remain unchanged, and we must consistently promote the peace agenda and do everything in our power to sign a peace agreement.
The fact that Azerbaijan introduces new topics into the discussion indicates that it is not particularly inclined to sign a peace treaty. Our political task is to change the overall environment and atmosphere so that signing a peace treaty becomes realistic,” Pashinyan emphasized.
According to the Prime Minister, Azerbaijan’s statements are aimed at deviating Armenia from its strategy.
“We will not deviate from our strategy, regardless of whether these statements come from domestic or foreign forces. I guarantee peace through the consistent, tireless, and principled implementation of the peace agenda, without deviation,” concluded Pashinyan.
