Armenia and Azerbaijan remain far from achieving peace despite the announcement of the completion of negotiations on a draft peace treaty, claims opposition Pativ Unem faction MP Tigran Abrahamyan.

But hurdles remain. Azerbaijan also said Armenia’s constitution must “eliminate the claims against the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan,” as a prerequisite to allow for the signing of the peace treaty.

The Peace Treaty is ready for signing,” an Armenian Foreign Ministry statement on Thursday said in announcing that Yerevan has accepted Baku’s latest proposals regarding the remaining contentious points of the language of a peace treaty between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
