The Armenian minister outlined Yerevan's vision of resolving the issue of "enclaves"
Baku/29.12.23/Turan: “Eight villages should either be exchanged or the legal foundations of these territories should be determined, Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure of Armenia Gnel Sanosyan said today, referring to the issue of Azerbaijani villages occupied by Armenia in the early 1990s.
"There are some territories that Azerbaijan allocates in this regard, and there are territories that we are talking about," Sanosyan said, according to Armenian media. According to him, "either an exchange should be carried out, or the legal foundations of these territories should be determined."
Sanosyan stressed that the demarcation and delimitation of the border can provide answers to these questions. The day before, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Ceyhun Bayramov said that the issue of 8 villages under Armenian control has always been discussed in negotiations, and their belonging to Azerbaijan is not a matter of dispute. At the same time, he noted that the issues of signing a peace treaty and delimitation of borders should be separated from each other.—06B-
