Armenia, Azerbaijan agree to step up efforts on peace deal draft - Armenian PM

AKIPRESS.COM - The Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan has agreed to intensify their work aimed to finalize their peace deal draft document, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said at the CIS Summit in Moscow, Tass reported.

"Both Armenia and Azerbaijan have stated in recent months that the draft document of the 'Agreement on Peace and Establishment of Interstate Relations' is at least 80% ready," Pashinyan said.

"The Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan reached an agreement recently to intensify the work on finalizing the draft peace treaty," the Armenian premier, who is currently paying an official visit to Moscow, added.

Addressing last month the 79th session of the UN General Assembly, Pashinyan stated that: "After signing the Peace Agreement with Azerbaijan, we must submit it to the Constitutional Court to verify the compliance of the Agreement with the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia."

"If our Constitutional Court decides that the Peace Agreement with Azerbaijan is in contradiction with the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia - even though our experts assure that it is not likely to happen, - then we will face a specific situation where constitutional changes will be needed for the sake of achieving peace," the Armenian premier added at that time.
