I have repeatedly stated that if we work intensively, we can complete this process and sign [the peace treaty] with Azerbaijan within a month. However, we see that every now and then certain very unnatural obstacles are being created to slow down this process, Mirzoyan noted during a briefing with his Georgian counterpart, Ilia Darchiashvili.

Mirzoyan expressed confidence that now there is a genuine historical opportunity to establish lasting peace in the region. He reiterated Armenia's commitment to fully unblock infrastructure and communications with Azerbaijan to promote development and ensure regional stability.

This will economically benefit not only Armenia but also [other] countries of the region, and we believe it will bring peace to [the South Caucasus], Mirzoyan stated.
