“Armenia proceeds from the position that we don’t have any territorial demand from any neighbor, including Azerbaijan, This means that we need to clarify the state borders and the territories which belong to our states. The issue is about the approaches of the logic of the peace treaty, the issue is about clarifying the principles. When we speak about numbers, we speak about exactness,” Arshakyan said. 

He added that in this context the Nagorno Karabakh issue is perceived within these approaches in a way that an international format must be created around the rights and security of the Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh and Stepanakert and Baku must launch dialogue.

“When the people of Artsakh [Nagorno Karabakh] speak about their rights and security, it means that they are present around the negotiation table, and our entire negotiation logic in this regard changed when they were absent from the negotiation table. The moment President Robert Kocharyan started negotiating not only on behalf of Armenia but also Artsakh, it indirectly turned out that Armenia has a territorial dispute which Azerbaijan. Now we are saying that we don’t have a territorial dispute with Azerbaijan. Meaning, we reciprocally recognize each other’s 

territorial integrity, and then international mechanisms are launched, which are responsible for coordinating dialogue between Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan and guarantees of the rights and security of the Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh,” Arshakyan said.
