Armenia is genuinely engaged in concluding the agreement on the establishment of peace and interstate relations with Azerbaijan, anchored in the principles of mutual recognition of each other’s territorial integrity and delimitation of the state border based on the 1991 Alma-Ata Declaration, and unblocking regional transport infrastructure based on full respect for the countries’ sovereignty and jurisdiction, as well as the principles of equality and reciprocity. This was stated by Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan on July 15 in New York while presenting Armenia's third voluntary National Report summarizing the progress in implementing the goals and objectives of the UN Sustainable Development Agenda.

He noted: "With this understanding, Armenia has initiated the “Crossroads of Peace” project. This project aims to develop communications between Armenia and its neighbouring countries, thus transforming the whole paradigm of relationships in the region from confrontation to mutually beneficial cooperation. 

Armenia also continuously undertakes significant efforts towards full normalization, establishing diplomatic relations and opening borders with Türkiye, which, if successful, will have a huge positive impact on the region."
