Is the signing peace between Azerbaijan and Armenia possible before the end of the year?
Baku/13.10.22/Turan: Azerbaijan and Armenia intend to sign a peace agreement by the end of the year, the Secretary of the Security Council of Armenia Armen Grigoryan stated. He said that the Armenian Foreign Minister met with Anthony Blinken in New York. Following this, US national security adviser Jake Sullivan arranged his meeting with Hikmet Hajiyev. “Basically, we discussed a number of Azerbaijani-Armenian issues,” Grigoryan said.
The diplomat stressed that the terms for concluding a peace agreement were also discussed: “We also talked about the delimitation of the border and the signing of a peace agreement by the end of the year,” Grigoryan added.
According to Grigoryan, the delimitation is expected to be completed by the end of the year. Peace treaty and delimitation are interrelated. Baku presented to Yerevan "an extended version of the five basic principles of regulation." Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov told journalists in Bishkek.
According to him, the Armenian side asked for time to study the proposals. “As long as Armenia has not responded, their reaction is not yet clear to us,” he said.
Is it possible to sign a peace agreement before the end of the year?
Elkhan Shahinoglu, a political commentator, answers these and other questions in the "Difficult Question" program.
In his opinion, signing or not a peace agreement before the end of the year depends on Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
“Azerbaijan is ready to sign a peace agreement even today. For this, only the recognition of Karabakh by Armenia as the territory of Azerbaijan is necessary. In fact, the statement adopted following the meeting of President Ilham Aliyev with French President Emmanuel Macron, President of the Council of the European Union Charles Michel and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan in Prague notes that Azerbaijan and Armenia once again demonstrate their commitment to the UN Charter and Alma -Ata Declaration of 1991, and recognize each other's territorial integrity and sovereignty. It would seem that this problem can be considered solved,” the political scientist noted.
However, according to him, Pashinyan, as has happened more than once, gives his word, but, after a while, breaks it. Or on the line of contact between troops there are clashes, human losses. “After such a demarche, the process has to start from scratch,” he said, adding that, nevertheless, there is still hope that the peace treaty will be signed. –0--
