I am not unilaterally talking about peace, we have signed documents about peace, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated at a briefing with Armenian reporters in Strasbourg, France, Monday. He noted this regarding Azerbaijani president Ilham Aliyev speaking from the UN rostrum about the 'Zangezur corridor,' to which the Armenian PM was forced to counter, turning the UN rostrum into a platform for clarifying matters and, also, at an event in Ganja, Azerbaijan, the Azerbaijanis showed their fists and recalled about winning the 44-day war in 2020, and whether this shows that Armenia is the one unilaterally talking about peace.
“In addition, it’s not like I’m the only one talking about peace. Azerbaijan is also talking about peace. There is no misinterpretation in the comments there. You say that the UN rostrum has turned into a platform for clarifying certain matters. The UN rostrum is precisely for this, so that certain matters are not clarified, but be explained. The UN platform is for expressing positions, for bringing them closer together to some extent. That is also my approach and perception,” Pashinyan added, in particular.
And speaking about the situation created after August 8 when Armenia and Azerbaijan initialed a peace agreement in Washington DC, Pashinyan said that in his address after that, he had compared peace to a newborn child which must grow up and become established.
“We [Armenians] have a good saying: ‘A child grows up by getting sick.’ Peace also will grow up by ‘getting sick,’ it will ‘get the flu,’ it will ‘catch a cold,’ it will ‘run a fever,’ it will ‘fall,’” the Armenian PM concluded.
