Pashinyan says discussion with Aliyev "was not easy"

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said on Thursday, September 1 that the discussion he had with the President of Azerbaijan in Brussels the previous day "was not easy".

European Council President Charles Michel hosted a meeting with Pashinyan and President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan on Wednesday.

Pashinyan explained that the decisions reached during the meeting "are of a working nature."

"It is clear that the discussion was lengthy, not easy. But I want to note that our goals remain and must remain unchanged. I have repeatedly spoken about them publicly. The Armenian government is guided by the peace agenda, and we need determination to implement it," Pashinyan said.

According to him, everyone should understand that possible solutions along the way are not obvious. He stressed that it is necessary to work consistently to achieve the goals.

He assured that all the matters will be discussed with the society and political forces when the right time comes.
