Armenian Opposition: Initialed Armenia–Azerbaijan Agreement Poses New Existential Threats

The initialed agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan has been criticized by the opposition parliamentary faction Armenia, Orda.kz reports, citing NewsArmenia.

The commitments undertaken by (Prime Minister – ed.) Nikol Pashinyan on August 8, 2025, in the U.S. during a trilateral meeting, as well as the initialed agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan — whose unfounded importance representatives of Pashinyan’s regime emphasize and promote — have nothing to do with the real world. Moreover, they contain new existential threats for Armenia and the Armenian people, the statement reads.

The text of the initialed peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan was made public on August 11, 2025, three days after it was agreed upon at the White House summit.

The faction stressed that the documents attempt to legitimize “ethnic cleansing and Azerbaijan’s genocidal policy against the Armenians of Artsakh, hostage-taking, falsified trials, the destruction of the Armenian heritage in Artsakh, removal of the Artsakh issue from the international agenda through the elimination of the OSCE Minsk Group, and the violent seizure of Armenia’s sovereign territories.”
