The Prime Minister's Office has responded to Azerbaijan’s recent disinformation, stating that “the Armenian army has no reason or order to violate the ceasefire.”

Between March 16-18, Azerbaijan’s defense ministry issued six statements claiming that Armenian forces had violated the ceasefire along the Armenia-Azerbaijan border.

In response, Armenia’s defense ministry conducted internal checks and refuted all allegations of ceasefire violations. The ministry also recalled that on June 22, 2024, Armenia had proposed a joint investigation mechanism for ceasefire violations, to which Azerbaijan has yet to respond positively.

In a March 17, 2025 statement, the defense ministry reiterated its willingness to investigate any evidence provided by Azerbaijan to substantiate its claims. However, as of now, Azerbaijan has not presented any factual proof or justification to Armenia.

Reaffirming its proposal for a joint ceasefire violation investigation mechanism, the Armenian Prime Minister’s Office emphasized that “the Armenian army has no reason or order to violate the ceasefire.”

The statement also underlined the Armenian government’s commitment to a peace agenda, pointing to efforts aimed at finalizing a peace and interstate relations agreement with Azerbaijan. Yerevan stressed the importance of concluding negotiations and urged Baku to begin discussions on the location and timing of the agreement’s signing.

The government further highlighted that the agreement draft addresses key issues related to peace between Armenia and Azerbaijan and lays out mechanisms for future actions.

Additionally, it was noted that in January 2025, Armenia formally proposed a solution for railway cargo transportation through each country’s territory and suggested a bilateral arms control mechanism, awaiting Azerbaijan’s response.

Armenia also reaffirmed its readiness to continue border delimitation efforts within the framework of the joint border commissions of both countries.
