Armenia and Azerbaijan Agree to Mutual Recognition of Territorial Integrity
2023-05-26
Armenian Prime Minister Pashnyan stated in the Russian capital Moscow on the 25th that Armenia and Azerbaijan have reached an agreement on mutual recognition of territorial integrity. According to Russian media reports, Pashnyan stated during the enlarged meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Commission that Armenia and Azerbaijan have agreed to recognize each other's territorial integrity. Based on this, "it can be said that we have made good progress in coordinating bilateral relations. Pashniyan also mentioned the issue of ensuring the rights and security of residents in the Nagorno Karabakh (Nagorno Karabakh) region "within the framework of international mechanisms". Azerbaijani President Aliyev also stated on the same day that the Albanian side has no territorial claims against Armenia. Considering that Armenia officially recognizes the Naka region as a part of Azerbaijan, there is a possibility of reaching a peace agreement between the two countries, which is an important prerequisite for the normalization of bilateral relations based on the recognition of each other's territorial integrity. Pashniyan told the media on the 22nd that Armenia recognizes the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, including the Naka region, on the premise that the safety of Armenian people living in the Naka region is guaranteed. The Naka region is located in the southwestern part of Azerbaijan, and its residents are mostly Armenian. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, war broke out between Azerbaijan and Armenia over the ownership of the Nakar region. Although the two countries reached a comprehensive ceasefire agreement in 1994, they have been in a state of hostility due to the Naqa issue, and armed conflicts have occurred from time to time.
