ArmInfo. The Office of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia issued a statement in connection with the accusations of Baku violating the ceasefire. Below is the full text of the statement without changes.
After all these reports, the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Armenia conducted verification work and, based on the results of the verification, refuted the allegations of violation of the ceasefire by the Armenian army.
In all these refutation reports, the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Armenia recalled the proposal of the Office of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia dated June 22, 2024 on the creation of a joint Armenian-Azerbaijani mechanism to investigate cases of ceasefire violations and/or similar information about them, to which Azerbaijan has not yet responded positively.
The message of the RA Ministry of Defense dated March 17, 2025 stated that the RA Ministry of Defense is ready to investigate the facts underlying the reports of Azerbaijan, if they are transferred to the Republic of Armenia.
We note that at the moment the Republic of Azerbaijan has not sent to the Republic of Armenia any factual data or justification for the violation of the ceasefire by the RA army.
The Office of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia, confirming its proposal to establish a joint Armenia-Azerbaijan mechanism to investigate cases of ceasefire violations and/or similar information about them, states that the RA army has no grounds or instructions to violate the ceasefire.
The Government of the Republic of Armenia is guided by the peace agenda, which is an indisputable proof of the steps aimed at finalizing the text of the agreement on the establishment of peace and interstate relations between the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Azerbaijan.
Reaching an agreement on the text of the peace agreement and completing the negotiations on agreeing on the text is an important step, and the Republic of Armenia calls on the Republic of Azerbaijan to begin consultations on the place and timing of signing the agreement.
We consider it necessary to emphasize that the agreed text of the draft Agreement touches upon the fundamental issues of establishing peace and relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan and provides for mechanisms for discussing further actions.
We also consider it necessary to note that in January 2025, the Republic of Armenia submitted to the Republic of Azerbaijan in writing a proposal on solving the problem of railway freight transportation from the western regions of Azerbaijan through the territory of the Republic of Armenia to the NAR, in the opposite direction and to third countries, and from the northwestern regions of the Republic of Armenia through the territory of Azerbaijan to the southern part of the Republic of Armenia, in the opposite direction and to third countries, as well as a proposal on the establishment of a bilateral mechanism for mutual arms control and is waiting for a positive response from Azerbaijan.
At the same time, we confirm that the Republic of Armenia is ready to continue the work on the delimitation of the state border with the Republic of Azerbaijan in accordance with the Regulation on the joint activities of the commission on delimitation of the state border and border security between the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Azerbaijan and the state commission on delimitation of the state border between the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Armenia>.
