No response from Azerbaijan for three months, says Armenian Speaker of Parliament

Azerbaijan hasn’t responded to Armenia’s latest peace treaty proposals for three months now, Speaker of Parliament Alen Simonyan said Tuesday.

Speaking to reporters, Simonyan emphasized that Armenia doesn’t seek to mislead anyone and this is obvious for all international partners.

“Armenia is offering concrete mechanisms to Azerbaijan and is ready to discuss these mechanisms, because the goal of both the government and the people of Republic of Armenia is well known, it is the establishment of peace. The accusations often made by Azerbaijan have absolutely nothing to do with Armenia,” Simonyan said.

At the same time, Simonyan said he doesn’t think that the negotiations are in a deadlock. He mentioned the ongoing delimitation and demarcation process.

“Indeed, it is already the third month that the Azerbaijani side hasn’t anyhow responded to our proposal. The Azerbaijani posture is highly concerning, we have been talking about this with all our international partners. I think it would be good if Azerbaijan resumed its participation in the peace process. We have presented a package and we are waiting for a response. We still don’t have a response,” Speaker Simonyan said.
