Armenian society ready for peace with Azerbaijan – Security Chief

Armenian society is ready for peace with Azerbaijan, Secretary of the Security Council of Armenia Armen Grigoryan said during a panel discussion with Hikmet Hajiyev, Assistant to the President of Azerbaijan, held within the framework of the Doha Forum.

“I can say that Armenian society is ready; they want peace, they support the peace process and the institutionalization of peace. We are working intensively in that direction,” Grigoryan said.

Speaking at a panel titled “Armenia–Azerbaijan Lasting Peace: The Washington Agreement and a Joint Future”, Grigoryan noted that alongside government decisions, it is important to create an atmosphere of trust between the two societies.

He stressed that civil society is also involved in this process. “Recently, civil society representatives from Baku visited Yerevan, and during the same period, representatives from Yerevan visited Baku.
