Azerbaijan is ready to sign a peace treaty with Armenia. Assistant to the President of Azerbaijan Hikmet Hajiyev said in an interview with BBC World.
“That is why Azerbaijan also proposed five fundamental principles and the text of the peace treaty. Currently, there are diplomatic obligations between Armenia and Azerbaijan within the framework of direct negotiations. I think that Armenia and Azerbaijan managed to surprise the world with a positive agenda. On December 7, the two countries issued a joint statement in which they expressed their intention to advance the peace agenda and implement confidence-building measures,” he said.
According to Hajiyev, the last three months can be considered the most peaceful period in the history of Armenian-Azerbaijani relations, after the independence of the two countries.
“There is no war, no brutality, no confrontation. soldiers return to their barracks. Relative peace is ensured at the local level. Now is the time to turn it into lasting peace, including the signing of a peace treaty,” Hajiyev said.
