Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan finds himself in a challenging position. His persistent efforts to convey basic truths to Armenian society often feel like banging his head against a wall. Regularly, he reiterates the same points, hoping that minds dulled by nationalist propaganda will eventually awaken.

The territorial claims against Azerbaijan embedded in the present-day Armenian constitution and other legislative acts remain a major obstacle to the ongoing peace process, said Azerbaijan’s Deputy Foreign Minister Elnur Mammadov.

Armenia must learn from history and finally realize that territorial claims against its neighbors will not yield any results, Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Friday.

The Western Azerbaijan Community has urged Armenia to abandon its revanchist tendencies.

Azerbaijan is not confident in the sincerity of the Armenian authorities regarding their renunciation of territorial claims, the representative of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan for Special Assignments Elchin Amirbayov said at an online seminar at the Hudson Institute in Washington.

The constitution of Armenia should be amended to remove direct territorial claims to Azerbaijan, as noted by the Azerbaijani president, Hikmet Hajiyev, Assistant to the President of Azerbaijan, Head of the Foreign Policy Affairs Department of the Presidential Administration, told journalists in Shusha on Sunday, News.Az reports.
