Meetings of the leaders of the two countries and ministers of foreign affairs, meetings of the division of the borders inspire a certain optimism regarding the peace process. It is time to sign a peace treaty between Azerbaijan and Armenia, noted Gafarova, expressing the hope that Armenia would demonstrate political will, will not delay this process and take real steps regarding the signing of a peace treaty. The signing of a peace treaty – the only way to ensure peace, stability and prosperity in the region, was concluded by the chairman of the Milli Majlis Sahib Gafarov.
