NA MP: Azerbaijan has never sought peace with Armenia and continues  to do so

ArmInfo. Azerbaijan has never sought peace with Armenia and does not currently seek it, as stated by Artur Khachatryan, a member of the National Assembly of the  Republic of Armenia from the opposition faction "Armenia", in a  conversation with journalists on March 17.

According to him, no matter how much Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan  tries to mislead the public  by claiming that everything ended well  and that they reached an agreement with the "constructive" president  of Azerbaijan, stating that both parties have no territorial claims  against each other and everyone agrees to unblock communications, in  reality all of this proves to be a bluff.

He mentioned that after the  draft law  on  Armenia's accession to  the European Union was adopted in the first reading,  Nikol Pashinyan  immediately called Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss the  document. The current situation with the so-called "peace" treaty was  no exception, when Pashinyan once again reached out to the Russian  leader immediately after announcing progress on the agreement's text.   "I believe that he understands the existence of completely different  priorities that the guide the West today.  US National Security  Advisor Michael Waltz first visited Moscow and then went to Baku  without visiting Yerevan, indicating that the West now  different  priorities. Europe is seeking to resolve its security issues amid  Washington's new policy  aimed at softening Russian-American  relations, and Yerevan is well aware of this," Artur Khachatryan  said. He believes that international mediators should have been  involved in the negotiations for successful implementation, but the  President of Azerbaijan "prohibited" such a development of events.  "And in Armenia, it is difficult not to carry out Aliyev's order. The  logic of the development of events indicates  that it would have been  correct if there were mediators," the oppositionist concluded.
