The peace treaty cannot be signed when the Azerbaijani armed forces are present in our territory. Armenia’s Parliament Speaker Alen Simonyan mentioned this in a briefing with journalists at the National Assembly.
“I think that when signing the peace treaty, we should have a situation where we do not have prisoners of war. That is our political position,” said Simonyan.
When asked if there is a certain understanding regarding the text of the treaty, Simonyan stated.
“The common understanding is the one that has been published, which includes recognition of each other's territorial integrity and other international provisions based on the treaties that exist in the world. If there will be specifics that specifically apply to our case, I will tell you, but for now we are going in the direction of basic standards.”
