PreferredA series of statements from Baku in recent days about the legislative framework of Armenia are a violation of our country's sovereignty and interference in our country's internal affairs. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated this at Thursday’s Cabinet meeting of the government of Armenia.
"Attempts to interpret whether there is any provision in Armenia’s legislation preventing the signing of the peace treaty [with Azerbaijan] have nothing to do with reality.
As I said, during the negotiations of the peace treaty, Armenia and Azerbaijan have succeeded in reaching an agreement on a number of articles; and one of them is that the parties cannot refer to their legislation in order to refuse to fulfill any provision of the peace treaty. Therefore, there is no provision in the legislation of Armenia preventing the implementation of the peace treaty. This is not only a political, but also an expert assessment," he said.
As reported earlier, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev had stated that If Armenia does not bring its legislation into order, a peace treaty will not be signed.
