Armenia and Azerbaijan Sign Peace Treaty After Decades-Long War
Armenia and Azerbaijan have reached a peace agreement to end nearly four decades of conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, a region internationally recognized as Azerbaijani but previously controlled by Armenian separatists. The agreement addresses two key articles concerning the deployment of third-country forces and mutual withdrawal of international claims. However, Azerbaijan insists on constitutional changes in Armenia to eliminate territorial claims before signing, a point disputed by Armenia’s Prime Minister. Despite this remaining hurdle, both countries express willingness to continue negotiations toward finalizing the peace treaty.
