Armenian MFA responds to Azerbaijan`s demand for minefield maps

ArmInfo.  The Armenian Foreign Ministry responded to Azerbaijan's demands to provide minefield maps.

Thus, the press secretary of the Armenian Foreign Ministry Ani  Badalyan, commenting on Baku's demands to provide minefield maps,  recalled that Yerevan, emphasizing the importance of resolving  humanitarian issues in 2021, unilaterally provided Azerbaijan with  972 minefield registers without preconditions.

According to her, moreover, remaining committed to the principles of  cooperation on humanitarian issues, Armenia compiled new minefield  registers based on requests and handed them over to Azerbaijan in  early 2024.

"Azerbaijan constantly questions the accuracy of these maps, despite  our repeated statements that there are no better or more accurate  maps. Armenia, both previously and now, is ready to verify the  accuracy of these maps with the involvement of international experts.

We would like to add that the UN International Court has  unequivocally rejected the petition for the application of a  provisional measure against Armenia, in which Azerbaijan accused  Armenia of mine activities," Badalyan emphasized.

The Azerbaijani side periodically demands minefield maps from  Armenia. In Yerevan, they say that they have handed over to Baku  everything they had.
