Armenia and the Armenian people have always sincerely delivered a message of peace. As a nation that survived the first genocide of the 20th century, we know the value of peace and security, Ara Aivazian, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia stated during a press conference with OSCE Chairperson-in-Office and Swedish Foreign Minister Anne Linde.
“Armenia has been in favor of an exclusively peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict at all stages. Today, too, we are fully aware of the possibilities that peace and real reconciliation can bring to our region, but peace is not just a nice word.
The peace, built on the destruction of the peaceful settlements of Artsakh, including the Hadrut region, the annihilation of the Armenian population, and the creation of Azerbaijani settlements instead, cannot be stable and lasting.
We will continue our struggle for a fair and dignified peace, closely cooperating with our international partners”, the Armenian Minister of Foreign Affairs said.
