Pashinyan will not agree to "corridor" solutions, Armenian authorities say

Armenia did not agree and will not agree to "corridor" solutions, the press secretary of the Prime Minister of Armenia Nazeli Baghdasaryan said a few hours before the signing of the Armenian-Azerbaijani agreements under the patronage of US President Donald Trump in Washington.

As Baghdasaryan noted, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan outlined Armenia's approaches "very clearly" at a press conference on July 16. There can be no other logic, she added.

Deputy Speaker of the Armenian Parliament Ruben Rubinyan, on the eve of the talks in Washington, explained what agreements Yerevan is ready to make.

"Unblocking on the basis of sovereignty, territorial integrity and jurisdiction. That is, in our case, all routes and infrastructures passing through Armenia will be under our full sovereignty and jurisdiction within the framework of our territorial integrity, and will operate in accordance with our legislation," Rubinyan writes on social networks.

If roads open for Azerbaijan, then they open for Armenia — with mutual advantages, he said.

Tonight in In Washington, US President Donald Trump will receive Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and hold talks with them. It is planned to sign an agreement, the points of which are not officially disclosed, but the media write that it is about signing a joint declaration, initialing by Yerevan and Baku peace agreement, signing of a document on withdrawal from the The OSCE Minsk Group.
