Foreign Minister resigns amid preparation of border demarcation agreement
Baku/27.05.21/Turan: Armenian Foreign Minister Ara Ayvazyan resigned on Thursday evening. The reason is disagreement with the forthcoming agreement with Azerbaijan on border demarcation.
In the afternoon, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan appealed to the international community and the Azerbaijani authorities to resolve the border crisis. The proposal is that Armenia and Azerbaijan will be withdrawn from the border, along which international observers from the Russian Federation or other OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing countries are stationed, Pashinyan said.
Baku has not yet expressed its attitude to this statement by Pashinyan.
Meanwhile, the Armenian media reported that Armenian Defense Minister Vagharshak Harutyunyan is in Moscow, where he will agree with the representatives of Moscow and Baku on the future border line between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
The opposition of Armenia again accused the Pashinyan government of another betrayal, believing that this is a violation of the country's sovereignty. Foreign Minister Ara Ayvazyan hastened to dissociate himself from these conversations, saying that he knew nothing. -02V-
