ArmInfo.The conclusion of a peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan means that it is necessary to find a solution to the Karabakh conflict, which we see  in ensuring the security and rights of the people of Artsakh, on the  basis of which the status should be determined. Secretary of the  Security Council of Armenia

Armen Grigoryan stated this during a  briefing on May 5, answering a question from journalists whether the  signing of a peace treaty does not mean the withdrawal of Russian  peacekeepers from Artsakh and the transfer of the rest of Artsakh to  Azerbaijan.

At the same time, he noted that international security guarantees  should be defined. "We don't know what the guarantees will be from an  institutional point of view. All this will be decided in the course  of negotiations. And if we see that the safety of our citizens will  be ensured, then we will give consent>, he said.

The Secretary of the Security Council also touched upon the 5 points  proposed by Azerbaijan on the peace treaty, which were supplemented  by 6 points from the Armenian side. "Our approach is to combine the  two packages of <5+6> proposals and start negotiations around a peace  agreement," he said.

At the same time, Grigoryan stressed that Armenia and Azerbaijan, as  well as international partners, have mutual understanding around the  approach of combining <5+6> packages.
