Armenia and Azerbaijan have agreed on three key principles of a bilateral peace deal, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said on Monday.
“If the sides remain committed to these principles, the signing of an agreement on peace and settlement of relations will be realistic,” he told a joint meeting of the parliamentary standing committees addressing the 2024 draft state budget.
The three principles include mutual recognition of each other’s territorial integrity, delimitation of their shared border based on the Alma-Ata Declaration and unblocking of regional communications, the premier detailed.
He also said that Armenia hopes to open its border with Turkey to citizens of third countries and holders of diplomatic passports in the near future.
