Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has warned that Russia’s restrictions on Armenian exports are calling into question the future of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), saying the dispute could mark “the beginning of the end” for the Moscow-led bloc if it is not resolved soon.
Azerbaijan and Armenia are on the threshold of peace for the first time since the restoration of their independence. This was announced by Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov, speaking in Austria at a special meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council. He spoke about the restoration work in Karabakh, the mine threat and the settlement of Azerbaijani-Armenian relations. According to him, it is necessary to eliminate differences in three areas of the peace treaty. These disagreements relate to the illegal presence of the Armenian military on the territory of Azerbaijan (Karabakh), interference in the internal affairs of the country and obstacles to dialogue with the Armenian residents of the Karabakh region.
The minister also added that Azerbaijan is determined to reintegrate ethnic Armenians into the political, legal and economic space of the country as equal citizens.
