ArmInfo.Leader of the parliamentary faction "My Step" Lilit Makunts, on May 31 in parliament commenting on the possible connection of the resignation of the acting Minister of Foreign Affairs Ara Aivazian with the proposal of Acting Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on the deployment of observers on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, stated that Aivazian did not object to this idea.
On May 27, at a meeting of the Security Council of the republic in an expanded composition, acting Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan proposed, in his words, the shortest path to de-escalation of the border situation with Azerbaijan, namely, the armed units of the two sides leave the border and return to their places of permanent deployment. Then, international observers from the Russian Federation or other co-chairing countries of the OSBE Minsk Group are deployed along the border. After the meeting of the Security Council, Acting Armenian Foreign Minister Ara Aivazian has resigned. It is worth noting that according to the information circulated in the media, Aivazian strongly disagreed with the policy pursued by the RA government headed by the acting Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia in connection with the Karabakh conflict and the situation on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.
"Before the meeting of the Security Council, the Prime Minister informed the acting Foreign Minister about the content of the statement, in connection with which the latter, at least, did not raise any objections," Makunts said, adding that she was not aware of the motives for the resignation.
