Fact of recognition Azerbaijan`s territorial integrity  is necessary  for Armenian authorities to recognize Armenia`s territorial integrity  

ArmInfo. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan assures that the fact of recognition of the territorial 

integrity of Azerbaijan is necessary for the Armenian authorities to recognize the territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia.

"We actually recognized the territorial integrity of Armenia. And the 

fact of recognition of the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan is 

necessary for the territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia to 

be recognized, because the territorial integrity of Armenia is 

surrounded by Azerbaijan.

If you do not recognize the territorial integrity of Turkiye, Iran, 

Georgia, Azerbaijan, you will not recognize the territorial integrity 

of Armenia, because Armenia is even historically a country that is 

surrounded by these countries. If you do not recognize their 

territorial integrity, you do not recognize the existence of your 

country. We were subjected to this temptation, and it was with this 

temptation that we destroyed the sovereignty of our country with our 

own hands. This is not a political, but a socio-psychological issue," 

Pashinyan said on April 11 in parliament.

Addressing his opponents, the prime minister said: "Let them not 

think that anyone loves historical Armenia more than us. Nobody loves 

historical Armenia more than me. But I refuse to love historical 

Armenia more than real Armenia. I, as the Prime Minister of the 

Republic of Armenia, generally refuse to love anything more than the 

real Armenia... its people and its interests>.
