There are two logics: logic one, that we allow for the transfer of positions, and there is the second logic, that we have a state border. They are two different logics, and the security gap that is being talked about, that security gap can be filled by having a state border. Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said during the Parliament-Government question-and-answer session, responding to the observation of Levon Kocharyan, deputy of ‘Hayastan’ (Armenia) faction, that the neighboring country not shared Armenia's compromise position; and what the Armenian side gets from the border delimitation process.
According to Pashinyan, Armenia's security must be based on the foundations of legitimacy, and on those foundations we must have a state border.
"This is Armenia, and I am the Prime Minister of Armenia, and the agreement that was recorded at the international level [is] that Armenia and Azerbaijan must recognize each other's territorial integrity.
This is the outline of Armenia’s territory based on the 1991 Alma Ata Declaration (shows a mockup of the map - ed.), this is the internationally recognized territory of Armenia, and Armenia is not going to cede the internationally recognized territory of Armenia to anyone. I think this should be very clear to everyone.
“Yes, we say that there are territories of the Republic of Armenia that are under occupation, and with this wording it is already obvious that the Government of the Republic of Armenia is not going to cede any part of the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia to anyone,” he said.
