Nikol Pashinyan: Yesterday’s Exchange of Armenia, Azerbaijan Servicemen Can Be Considered ‘Zero Point’


If Azerbaijan does not abandon the already reached agreements, signing a peace treaty with Azerbaijan in the near future becomes very realistic. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated this in his opening remarks Thursday at the Ministerial Meeting of Landlocked Developing Countries, which Armenia’s capital city of Yerevan is hosting.

“For my part, I want to emphasize that Armenia reaffirms its commitment to these agreements. The only question that arises is when the peace treaty between Armenia and Azerbaijan will be signed in the near future.

“There are several approaches to answering this question. One can focus on the facts that indicate that the probability of such an event is not high, and one can focus on the facts that can create a more positive impression that the probability of such developments is high.

“Both groups of facts exist. But since a very important event took place yesterday, an exchange of captured persons took place between Armenia and Azerbaijan, I would not like to focus on facts that inspire pessimism. I would like to consider yesterday’s event as a ‘zero point’ from which we will be able to at least make efforts so that all future news will testify more to the increase in the probability of signing a peace treaty, and not the other way around,” stressed the Armenian premier.
