ArmInfo. If problems arise with some houses while delimiting the border between Armenia and  Azerbaijan in the Tavush region, in that case, the state will defend the rights of our citizens and build new houses in the same locality. RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan told reporters on April 20.

"What we agreed on with the residents of Voskepar was recorded in  Voskepar. The same applies to Kirants. In conversations about  Kirants, we did not go into many working details. However, I said  both in Kirants and in Voskepar that if suddenly, a problem arises  with some houses and land plots during the demarcation process,   then, naturally, we will defend the rights of all our citizens. If  there is such a need, we will build new houses in the same village,"  Pashinyan said.

According to the Prime Minister, the problems that sometimes arise on  the Armenian side can also arise on Azerbaijan. "What is the  difference? People do not live in Azerbaijani villages, people live  in our villages.  During the Soviet Union, the villages of Voskepar  and Ashaghi Askipara were not far from each other, the villages of  Kirants and Kheyrimli were very close. All issues will be resolved,  all issues can be resolved," said Pashinyan.

Yesterday, the parties agreed to complete agreement on the draft  regulations on joint activities of delimitation commissions by July  1. The parties have agreed that the process of  delimitation will be  based on the  Alma-Ata 

Declaration of 1991. The parties have also arranged to stipulate this  fundamental principle in the draft Regulation (in the future, in case  the Agreement on the establishment of peace and interstate relations  between the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Azerbaijan  provides otherwise, the relevant clause of the Regulation will be  brought into compliance with the principles as prescribed by this  Agreement). Agreed that after the parties approve the Regulation,  they will arrange the order and continue the delimitation process of  all the remaining sections of the border, including the issues of  enclaves and exclaves.  On April 19, the eighth meeting of the  commissions on state border demarcation was held on the border of  Armenia and Azerbaijan, following which a protocol was signed.  According to the RA Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the delimitation of  borders of the separate sections of the borderline immediately  between the settlements of  the Armenian village of Baghanis-  Azerbaijani Baghanis Ayrum, Armenian Voskepar- Azerbaijani Ashaghi  Askipara, Armenian Kirants- Azerbaijani Kheyrimli, Armenian Berkaber-  Azerbaijani Ghizilhajili has been preliminarily agreed upon.
