The situation in the world և in the region is tense, and we consider ourselves responsible for reducing that tension and finding fundamental solutions. In this regard, yes, we think that the peace talks between Armenia and Azerbaijan should start as soon as possible, Pashinyan said before the start of the Government session.
“At the same time, the need to accelerate the demarcation and delimitation of borders should be noted, along with steps to increase border security and stability. You know, of course, that we proposed a mirror withdrawal of troops from the border, referring to the de jure established border of Armenia and Azerbaijan in Soviet times.
But I want to inform that in addition to the complete withdrawal, we have made proposals for local withdrawals, and here we are waiting for Azerbaijan’s response. In particular, in the Yeraskh section, we have suggested a mirror withdrawal of some positions in their section of Yeraskh and we shall withdraw some positions from their section, thus resolving the issue of one of the hottest points of the last year and a half. As I said, we are waiting for Azerbaijan’s response.
By the way, after a number of recent events, we did not understand whether Azerbaijan wants to open regional communications or not. If they wants, our proposals will remain in force, and we are ready to implement them at any moment, literally at any moment. I have said several times about the Armenian Crossroads project, but now I do not see the need to go into details,” he said.
