We are often criticized for saying that the peace established between Armenia and Azerbaijan is not perfect, but please tell me, where is the peace perfect, where is there perfect peace, and where was it and when? Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated in his address at the European Parliament on Wednesday in Strasbourg, France.

Pashinyan added as follows: “And on the contrary, it is the will to care for peace that creates options to make it as close to perfect as possible.

This is how we approach all issues, including the issues of our compatriots being held in custody in Azerbaijan.

Recently, Azerbaijan released four more of our compatriots. The Armenian public, we all experienced happiness on that occasion. But the [Armenian] government very quickly returned to continuing its silent diplomatic work, for the sake of the return of others, because I am convinced that if we had not previously chosen the style of silent diplomatic work, the return of our four compatriots on January 14 simply would not have happened."
