Armenian Foreign Minister announces Yerevan's firm commitment to peace agenda

YEREVAN, September 16 /ARKA/. Armenia is firmly committed to the peace agenda, said today Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan.

"We have submitted to Azerbaijan the latest revised version of proposals for a peace treaty, which contains a fully agreed text. I would like to note France's support in this process," said Mirzoyan on Monday at a joint press conference with French Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs Stephane Sejourné.

According to him, Armenia is ready to sign a peace treaty with Azerbaijan, which will recognize the territorial integrity of the two countries based on the Alma-Aty Declaration, according to which the borders of Armenia and Azerbaijan are the borders that existed during the Soviet Union at the time of its collapse.

On September 1, Armenia had handed over the 10th package of the draft peace treaty to the Azerbaijani side. On September 10, the head of the Armenian Government, Nikol Pashinyan, said that Azerbaijan had been asked to sign the already agreed text of the peace treaty, explaining that 13 points and the preamble had been fully agreed upon in the document, while three points had been partially agreed upon.

According to Azerbaijani media reports, Baku rejected this proposal.
