Armenian PM hopes for acceleration in talks on peace treaty with Azerbaijan

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has stated that it is necessary to begin the delimitation process on the next section of the border with Azerbaijan soon.

Pashinyan made this statement during a parliamentary session, Caliber.Az reports via Armenian media.

He also expressed hope for an acceleration of efforts to finalize the peace treaty between Armenia and Azerbaijan.

"Some 90 per cent of the work has already been done. Only the final efforts remain," Pashinyan added.

Earlier, Special Representative of the Azerbaijani president for Special Assignments Elchin Amirbayov said that efforts to resolve the territorial dispute and normalise relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia are making significant headway, with both sides nearing the signing of a pivotal peace agreement.

Peace prospects continue improving through a series of important confidence-building measures between the two countries, greatly enhancing the chances for peace in the South Caucasus.  

Pashinyan also expressed his commitment to finalising an agreement with Azerbaijan by the end of the year.
