Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan stated that during the 44-day war in Karabakh, an information campaign was launched against Azerbaijan with the aim of accusing Ankara of supporting Baku. He emphasized that these accusations relied on the rhetoric of Ankara's opponents and spread false information about Turkish arms supplies to Azerbaijan.
Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan, in an interview with the Polish television channel TVP World, stated that Yerevan does not share the preconditions for signing a peace treaty promoted by Azerbaijan.
"Nevertheless, even before the final signing of the peace treaty, there are processes that are already underway or could be ongoing in parallel. For example, we discussed the possibility of a more tolerant attitude toward each other, or even prospects for cooperation on international platforms," the minister emphasized.
Mirzoyan noted that the peace treaty would give the two countries access to each other's railways, and subsequently, highways.
Regarding Russian policy, he emphasized that Moscow had positively assessed the Washington agreements on normalizing relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan. However, Mirzoyan noted that criticism of Yerevan is regularly heard in Russian state media, as well as from members of parliament and experts.
