Pashinyan emphasized, «we will continue to work on the further institutionalization of peace»:

Pashinyan emphasized that he cannot declare that we are abandoning the topic of enclaves or exclaves. «We need to find a solution to this issue.»
«Artsvashen is recorded as an enclave in the maps of the Azerbaijani currency and passport; this is a very important nuance, and I believe that we should also reflect the same approach,» Pashinyan noted:
