Azerbaijan is not demanding that Armenia make changes to its Constitution during the negotiation process. Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan made this contested assertion on March 23 at a session of the standing parliamentary Committee on Foreign Relations, during the presentation of the report on the progress and results of the implementation of the Government of the Republic of Armenia's program (2021–2026) for 2025.

However, as the Minister noted, Baku is warning that it will not sign a peace treaty if the current provisions remain in place. According to him, Yerevan has repeatedly stated that Armenia's Constitution contains no provisions problematic for Azerbaijan — in particular, no territorial claims. Moreover, the parties signed a document referencing the Alma-Ata Declaration, which excludes such claims.

"On the other hand, if anyone sees such claims in the political or any other sphere, they can be seen to an equal or even greater extent in Azerbaijan's Constitution," Mirzoyan remarked.

Against the backdrop of Ilham Aliyev's regular and entirely transparent statements to the contrary, he again assured that the Azerbaijani president is allegedly not demanding that Armenia amend its Constitution. "I want to assure you that there is no demand from Azerbaijan to change Armenia's Constitution. But there is something else, and they say this publicly. When we say that we cannot discuss changing the Constitution with them, and that this is not a topic of negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan, they respond — fine. 'But we want to inform you that as long as your Constitution contains such wording, we do not plan to sign,'" said the Armenian Foreign Minister, quoting his Azerbaijani counterparts. According to him, the Armenian side has already taken note of this position. "And yes, on this issue the approaches of the parties differ," the head of the foreign policy department acknowledged.
