There is still no understanding where and when the signing of peace treaty is possible - Mirzoyan

ArmInfo. There is still no  understanding where and when the signing of the peace treaty is  possible, as stated by Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan at a  joint press conference with his Iranian counterpart Abbas Araghchi.

Answering the question about what Yerevan should do in  conditions  when after the statement on agreeing the text of the draft peace  agreement with Baku, the Azerbaijani side voices new conditions and  spreads misinformation about border violations, Mirzoyan noted that  the Armenian side has proposed to the Azerbaijani side to start  discussing the place and time of the negotiations.  At the same time,  he noted that currently there was no confirmation of  readiness to  start discussions on the timing and place of signing the document  from Azerbaijan, on the contrary, they started putting forward  conditions.

"What to do, you ask? We should continue to work, negotiate, look for  worthy solutions to ensure lasting peace. There is no alternative to  this. Yes, there is still no understanding  where and when the   signing of the document is possible. We are ready to get involved in  the process as soon as possible," the Armenian Foreign Minister  added.

In his welcoming speech, Mirzoyan said that he has discussed the  situation with the delimitation of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border  and the peace agreement with his counterpart from Iran. In this vein,  he reaffirmed Armenia's desire to finally establish peace and  stability in the region. According to him, the signing of the agreed  text of the draft peace treaty with Baku would be a significant step  in that direction.  Mirzoyan also thanked Iran for its position on  this issue. "We have repeatedly stated that we highly appreciate  Iran's clear position on the inviolability of the territorial  integrity and sovereignty of Armenia.  Just as for Iran, the  inviolability of the border between our countries is of vital  importance for Armenia," the chief diplomat of Armenia said. The  Minister also noted that, among other things, issues on the  international agenda were discussed at the meeting, and he, for his  part, emphasized Armenia's readiness to contribute to Iran's dialogue  with friendly countries.
