Armenia supports immediate peace in Middle East

Armenia supports the immediate establishment of peace in the Middle East, Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan said.

He told reporters that Armenia wants to see peace fully preserved around its borders.

“We are interested in the full maintenance of peace around Armenia. In the case of our brotherly Iranian people, we are saddened by the deaths and the attacks on infrastructure. Their neighboring Arab states are also our friendly countries. We support the immediate establishment of peace, and we are even more—tenfold or a hundredfold—committed to maintaining peace around Armenia,” Mirzoyan said at a press briefing when asked about the ongoing U.S.-Israeli military operations in Iran and the escalating situation in the Middle East.
