Baku sends Yerevan another version of peace treaty proposals
Baku/25.12.23/Turan: Azerbaijan closely follows the statements of the Armenian leadership and receives positive messages. But practical steps are important besides statements. Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Ceyhun Bayramov stated this in an interview with AZTV state television.
"At the end of November we received from Armenia another package of proposals on the peace treaty. Within a month, the proposals developed by us were sent to the Armenian side. This process continues," Bayramov said. He noted that he expects to hold meetings with the Armenian side next year.
"We look at the process realistically and should realise that a peace treaty is not a 100% solution to all issues. The peace treaty is a foundation for further discussions, a condition for the formation of normal neighbourly relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia," he stressed.
The exchange of proposals between Armenia and Azerbaijan on the text of the peace agreement is going on for more than a year. So far the sides have exchanged variants of the proposals 6 times.-02D-
