On November 12th, the British Foreign Policy Group hosted a closed roundtable discussion with H.E. Ambassador Varuzhan Nersesyan on Armenia’s Foreign Policy priorities and regional developments in the South Caucasus.
During the discussion, Ambassador Nersesyan highlighted Armenia’s active pursuit of peace with Azerbaijan and reaffirmed the Armenian government’s commitment to a diplomatic approach aimed at securing a durable settlement. Emphasizing the importance of capitalizing on the present momentum, he noted that Armenia’s vision of peace is rooted in mutual respect, cooperation, and sovereignty.
A key component of the dialogue was Armenia’s “Crossroads of Peace” proposal, which seeks to unlock regional communications and promote cooperation based on reciprocity and equality, while ensuring that all transportation routes operate under the sovereignty and jurisdiction of the countries they traverse.
Ambassador Nersesyan noted that this proposal is intended to foster a collaborative environment and enable all regional stakeholders to benefit from improved connectivity and economic opportunities, without compromising their sovereign rights.
Ambassador Nersesyan concluded by thanking British Foreign Policy Group for hosting the event.
