ArmInfo.There are issues that can be discussed, and there are issues that cannot be discussed. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated this in an interview with PTA, touching upon Baku's new demands and preconditions for signing a peace agreement. he said.
According to the Prime Minister, in essence, the co-chairmanship of the OSCE Minsk Group, , is about the conflict situation in the territory of Azerbaijan. he said.
When asked whether Yerevan had already given its consent to the dissolution of the OSCE Minsk Group before the signing, Pashinyan noted: "Our goal is not the deadline, our goal is the content, So, when the content is considered, we are ready, or the mechanism for addressing the content would seem reliable and trustworthy, then of course, we are also ready to engage in certain decisions." "What is not up for discussion now? As I said in the past, under this Western Azerbaijan discourse, anything under this discussion is not up for discussion for us. Because when they call 60% of our country's territory Western Azerbaijan, it is a direct violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of our country, and I do not think that any country could offer any other country to discuss its sovereignty, political independence and territorial integrity, especially since the document that has entered into force and with the agreed text of the peace treaty, this issue of the territorial integrity, sovereignty, the absence of territorial claims, the obligation to not advance territorial claims in the future, all of these issues have been resolved,> he said.
As for the issue of the Constitution, according to the Prime Minister, the agreed text of the peace treaty contains very significant answers to this question. At the same time, Yerevan believes that the Constitution of Azerbaijan contains territorial claims, aspirations regarding the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia. However, Pashinyan pointed out, the agreement primarily states that the parties recognize each other's territorial integrity and sovereignty within the borders of the Soviet Union, have no territorial claims against each other and undertake not to make such territorial claims in the future. In addition, the parties cannot refer to their domestic legislation in case of failure to fulfill their obligations under the agreement. In addition, he added that the decision of Armenia's Constitutional Court of September 26, 2024 states that the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia does not contain territorial claims against any neighbor.
